Theft of a Tree, by the sixteenth-century poet Nandi Timmana, recounts how Krishna stole the pÄrijÄta, a wish-granting tree, from the king of the gods. Krishna gifts the tree to his wife Satyabhama—who must temporarily relinquish it to enjoy endless happiness. The text is presented in the Telugu script alongside the first English translation.
