Oh, seems like I forgot that you wanted to run MetaPost externally.
The command "enlarged" isn't contained in standard MetaPost but only
in the extension MetaFun (i.e. MetaPost plus quite a number of
predefined MetaPost macros) that comes with ConTeXt. Therefore the
error is thrown ...
Why not try this (in ConTeXt):
---
\starttext
\startuseMPgraphic{yourPicture}
% put your MetaPost code here (without beginfig(); and endfig;)
setbounds currentpicture to boundingbox currentpicture enlarged 1cm;
\stopuseMPgraphic
\useMPgraphic{yourPicture}
\stoptext
---
Best,
Oliver
