Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta · Text Madhya 19.223
কান্ধে চড়ে, কান্ধে চড়ায়, করে ক্রীড়া-রণ ।
কৃষ্ণে সেবে, কৃষ্ণে করায় আপন-সেবন ॥ ২২৩ ॥
kāndhe caḍe, kāndhe caḍāya, kare krīḍā-raṇa
kṛṣṇe seve, kṛṣṇe karāya āpana-sevana
Translation
“On the sakhya-rasa platform, the devotee sometimes offers the Lord service and sometimes makes Kṛṣṇa serve him in exchange. In their mock fighting, the cowherd boys would sometimes climb on Kṛṣṇa’s shoulders, and sometimes they would make Kṛṣṇa climb on their shoulders.
