### [1.34.43](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.campu.krsna.gopalacampu.1.34.43)

nālaṃ me rājya-lipsā katham api valate nirmame tatra satyaṃ  
kaṃsaṃ hatvā yadūnāṃ sukham abhivalayann asmi cāyāta-kalpaḥ |  
baddhaḥ syāt kṛṣṇa-sāraḥ sapadi vidhi-vaśāt tarhi kiṃ pārthivāder  
mānas tasmin sukhāya prabhavati na vanaṃ nāpi kāntā-susaṅgaḥ ||

> 'No desire for kingship arises in me, who am unattached to it; truly, / after slaying Kaṃsa and increasing the joy of the Yadus, I am as good as returned! / If a blackbuck should suddenly be captured by the power of fate, does honor from kings / and the like bring it joy? Neither the forest nor the fine company of its beloved can be replaced!' //
