The cowherd boyfriends said to Lord Krishna: You have returned so quickly! We have not eaten even one morsel in Your absence. Please come here and take Your meal without distraction.
The words sv-agatam te 'ti-ramhasa indicate that the cowherd boys were congratulating Lord Krishna for having brought the calves back so quickly from the forest. Now Lord Krishna's beloved friends urged Him to sit down properly and eat to His full satisfaction. According to Srila Prabhupada's Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the cowherd boyfriends felt quite jubilant and were eager to eat with their dear friend, Krishna.
