Rabindra Dāsa
Rabindra Dasa
1. The many highways and byways were all seen by one who was lonely.
2. Bereft of guidance and vision he wandered in the darkness tight about,
3. His mind and body bleeding the horrors of this Age of Kali
4. With fatigue's demand he fell, laying down with a painful shout.
5. Only darkness, behind his eyelids as the blackness upon his heart
6. Then there came to pass a radiant soul, and said "From this hell you should depart!"
7. Behold in vision this saintly man; not a mortal is he,
8. Witness please, and marvel as he leads the kirtana of Hari.
9. My dear man, have you not heard of Vrndavana and of Sri Gaur-hari?
10. Prabhupada, Caitanya! All auspicious sounds do vibrate this earth and sky.
11. No one is greater exalter than he,
12. for he knows the mellows of the Six Gosvamis.
13. His Divine Grace is full of bliss
14. as Sri Radhika relishing Krsna's kiss.
15. Now just hear the loving cheer
16. of those who hold him most dear!
17. Mother earth weeps a sigh of relief
18. for those who are now in firm belief.
19. All glories to he; Srila Prabhupadaji
20. Who has come to save those as you and me
21. A most magnanimous soul is he
22. This pure devotee of Lord Hari
23. So now leave this dreadful Age of Kali
24. and touch the feet of our beloved Swamiji.
25. This is my plea and you will see
26. That is his glory, everyone should be.
27. Yes, this is bliss and of miseries be free
28. Take shelter of him only please
29. For this glorious vision should not cease.
30. And yea for soon did they leave
31. For His Divine Grace, Srila Prabhupadaji
