New Vrindaban

Representative of Krsna's mercy
our dear friend you strive to help us remember.
Your purity opens us to this eternal fire
of sacrifice to the Lord, then increasing
like a ray of light expanding never ceasing.

This energy is yours to rule
for you are Krsna's ruled in sublime affection.

Gurudeva of compassion
fulfilling the desire of the Supreme Truth
your words are like jewels of effulgent fire
scattering the jackals of matter
that devour the breath of the soul.

O master
walking on this once barren land
holy dust, now holy dhama
teaching us to live in simplicity
to see Krsna everywhere in a special way
for there is magic in His dealings.

By your grace one gets Krsna
delivering Radha Vrndavana Candra
for our eyes and hearts to focus on
capturing the inmates with Their beauty.

Only by your grace, because you have captured Him
a friend to this art of eternal rasa,
Can we surrender enough to hold
a second of this masterpiece?

When will you come and bless us
by living in your palace, Srila Prabhupada?
It is a creation of your heart
for us to offer ours.

If you stay for one night
or a million years
this palace, these souls
are eternally yours
to glorify the most beautiful
cowherd boy of Vrndavana.
