tat karma divyam iva yan niśi niḥśayānaṁ dāvāgninā śuci-vane paridahyamāne unneṣyati vrajam ato 'vasitānta-kālaṁ netre pidhāpya sabalo 'nadhigamya-vīryaḥ

Translation

On the very night of the day of the chastisement of the Kāliya snake, when the inhabitants of Vrajabhūmi were sleeping carefreely, there was a forest fire ablaze due to dry leaves, and it appeared that all the inhabitants were sure to meet their death. But the Lord, along with Balarāma, saved them simply by closing His eyes. Such are the superhuman activities of the Lord.
