Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam · Text 1.11.10
Who is speaking and story frame
कथं वयं नाथ चिरोषिते त्वयि प्रसन्नदृष्टयाखिलतापशोषणम ।
जीवेम ते सुन्दरहासशोभितमपश्यमाना वदनं मनोहरम ।
इति चोदीरिता वाच: प्रजानां भक्तवत्सल ।
शृण्वानोऽनुग्रहं दृष्टया वितन्वन् प्राविशत् पुरम् ॥ १० ॥
kathaṁ vayaṁ nātha ciroṣite tvayi
prasanna-dṛṣṭyākhila-tāpa-śoṣaṇam
jīvema te sundara-hāsa-śobhitam
apaśyamānā vadanaṁ manoharam
iti codīritā vācaḥ
prajānāṁ bhakta-vatsalaḥ
śṛṇvāno ’nugrahaṁ dṛṣṭyā
vitanvan prāviśat puram
O master, if You live abroad all the time, then we cannot look at Your attractive face, whose smiles vanquish all our sufferings. How can we exist without Your presence? Upon hearing their speeches, the Lord, who is very kind to the citizens and the devotees, entered the city of Dvārakā and acknowledged all their greetings by casting His transcendental glance over them.
