Moon is farther than the sun,
With this knowledge you have come.
Souls whose lives were without fun,
Now, however, you have won.

Words of wisdom on your lips,
Vedic scriptures are your stick.
Absolute Truth within your grip,
Parampara is your whip.

Karmis, jnanis are your game,
Krsna-bhakti is your fame.

One way only-the holy name!

Life comes from life, you have proved.
Scientific nonsense thus disproved.
Devotion to Krsna you've approved,
Maya's illusion now removed.

Chemicals not we are made,
Impersonal calamity you have razed.
God is a person we have craved,
Road to Godhead you have paved.

Like a lion without fear,
Bringing the message both far and near.
Yasya deve para bhaktiḥ,
All that's left is just to hear.

Dear Srila Prabhupada,
Please accept our worthless obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet. Although it is not the position of the servant to ask from the master, we are simply praying that you benedict us with the potency to preach this knowledge all over the world. Last year we saw the Krsna consciousness movement become famous in every household throughout the planet, and even. though we are now engaged in a fierce struggle with the demons who are trying to stop this movement, we are confident that this is Krsna's plan for a glorious victory. Therefore Srila Prabhupada, don't forget your fallen disciples here in Gainesville. We want to go too. Everyone loves a winner, and you are conquering the entire universe in the tradition of Prahlada Maharaja, Ambarisa Maharaja, Arjuna and the Panḍavas, Lord Caitanya and the Six Gosvamis, Bhaktivinoda Thakura and Srila Bhaktisiddhanta. Please take us with you. Don't leave us here to rot in this ocean of birth and death. Force us to become qualified to have your association. Please let us be there when the whole world surrenders at your lotus feet, and Radha-Krsna are installed in the White House!
