TRANSLATION

Thereafter, Lord Krsna, along with Balarama, began to play with the other children of the cowherd men, thus awakening the transcendental bliss of the cowherd women.

The word saha-ramah, meaning "along with Balarama," is significant in this verse. In such transcendental pastimes, Krsna is the chief hero, and Balarama provides additional help.
