Dear Srila Prabhupada
You are the General Directing the fight
Revealing the Godhead
Destroying mayas' might.
Revealing the Godhead
Destroying mayas' might.
Like Arjuna, we fear the battle call
We hesitate-we tremble-we fall.
Like Lord Krsna, you lift us up by your instruction
You chastise-you enlighten you save us from destruction.

Like Lord Krsna, you lift us up by your instruction
You chastise-you enlighten you save us from destruction.
Remembering the cowherd boys, fearless we march
Into the Aghasurine cities and towns
Defying their 'fishy bad smells' and
Skyscraper fangs touching the clouds.
Into the Aghasurine cities and towns
Defying their 'fishy bad smells' and
Skyscraper fangs touching the clouds.
Armed with your books, forward we thrust
Deep into maya's kingdom,
Illusions dispelled, the conditioned souls
Experience real freedom.
Deep into maya's kingdom,
Illusions dispelled, the conditioned souls
Experience real freedom.
Maya advanced through the godless technological race
Her gleam and glitter turn men's eyes from God's grace
Fouling the air, poisoning rivers and lakes
The scientists are modern Kaliya snakes.

And with your strong words
You kick on their heads
Replacing their venom
With nectar instead.

O Master! O Lord!
Please show us the arts
Of chanting and dancing
And purifying our hearts!

"Jaya Prabhupada" and "Hare Krsna"
These our battle cry! Pray to remember
Your lotus feet when we die.
These our battle cry! Pray to remember
Your lotus feet when we die.
And in your monumental plan
To create a new history
Remember your words-"Without a hard struggle-
What is the chance for a glorious Victory."

Srila Prabhupada, all glories to you. How can I glorify you adequately? Only by your mercy will it be possible for me to begin. Like Haridasa Thakura, you are an ocean of transcendental qualities. Like Vasudeva Datta, your compassion knows no bounds as you are prepared to bear the sins of the universe and go to hell for Lord Sri Caitanya. As Vakresvara Panḍita danced all night, you once danced for Lord Jagannatha's entire festival in London, giving the Lord and all your devotees great joy. Just to hear this is wonderful. Who can estimate your fame? It is spread all over the three worlds. Like Rūpa and Sanatana, you are increasing the limits of the ocean of love of Godhead. Tirelessly preaching like no one else, you are never-endingly speaking of Lord Caitanya's mission, inspiring all of your devotees to preach this nama-sahkirtana. O Srila Prabhupada, so great you are, you have saved the world with your Bhaktivedanta purports.
You are my heart, my life and soul. My morning rising is by your call of service to the transcendental Lord Sri Krsna. Morning bath, visnu-tilaka, saffron robes, Gayatri, thousands of Godbrothers, japa and mahgala-aratrika are all from you; priceless gifts of service and association you have bestowed. The Deities and Their prasada, more than we can eat, and a first-class transcendental home; you have offered all this. What I could not have dreamed of in eternity, what would have been impossible for me to conceive of with this mundane mind, into this ISKCON Krsna consciousness I have gained entrance by your grace. You are His Divine Grace, the mercy incarnation of Krsna, and this movement is a manifestation of your pure, uncontaminated desire to please Sri Gaurasundara.
This mission, your life and soul and every breath, is pure nectar, simply sublime and full of transcendental ecstasy. To take part as your assistant birth after birth-let that be my only desire. By assisting your preaching I can taste the highest bliss and know who are Radha and Krsna-your youthful loving couple for whom you've given up this world in madness. You are Their Lordship's eternal servitor and topmost devotee, and for this I have the proof. For Them you have come here and saved me and all of us. You are making everyone a Vaisnava. Who can resist you? It is not possible. You have defeated everyone. You have taught the world real science, the best economy, perfect government and better business. You are the greatest cook, the best musician and sweetest vocalist. Even Narada and Vyasadeva sing your glories. You are the greatest author, greatest devotee, greatest spiritual master of all time, yet more humble than a blade of grass. Tolerating my offenses, always encouraging me, O Srila Prabhupada, I am your dog. I cannot begin to glorify you yet you have allowed me to write some words. I love you, Srila Prabhupada, please let me distribute your books wherever you see fit. You are my guide, my master, and my life is all your mercy. I am falling at your lotus feet, please consider my plea. You are my only shelter, what can I do? I am appealing to you and you will not turn me away. You have given me this sannyasa order of life, now again I promise you, I make this vow, eternally I am your menial servant.
Thank you, Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you!
