rāja-vidyā rāja-guhyaṁ pavitram idam uttamam pratyakṣāvagamaṁ dharmyaṁ su-sukhaṁ kartum avyayam This knowledge is the king of education, the most secret of all, The purest and supreme, that answers to the soul’s call. It gives direct perception, the path of truth and grace, Joyfully performed, eternal, in time and in this place. Yo, let the truths […]

Let the story unfold, About a swami from India, brave and bold. Seventy years young, with a mission in his soul, Prabhupada’s tale, let the rhythm take control. (Verse 1) Nineteen sixty-five, a voyage on the sea, Heart attacks strikin’, but his spirit runs free. Seven dollars in his pocket, that’s all he had, New […]
(Intro) Yo, check the mic, one two, this ain’t no ordinary tune It’s a hymn of the earth, under the sun and moon From the soil we spring, with a spiritual glow Let the rhythm flow, watch the seeds we sow! (Verse 1) Sunrise paints the sky, a brand new day begins On temple land […]
(Intro Verse) na yad vacaś citra-padaṁ harer yaśo jagat-pavitraṁ pragṛṇīta karhicit tad vāyasaṁ tīrtham uśanti mānasā na yatra haṁsā niramanty uśik-kṣayāḥ (Verse 1) Yo, words that fail to recount, the Lord’s pure renown, He alone sanctifies, the universe’s crown. Saintly persons consider them, a low-grade domain, A pilgrimage for crows, enduring constant strain. The all-perfect […]
(Intro Verse) tad vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavo yasmin prati-ślokam abaddhavaty api nāmāny anantasya yaśo ’ṅkitāni yat śṛṇvanti gāyanti gṛṇanti sādhavaḥ (Verse 1) Yo, that literature, a distinct creation, Brimming with transcendental glories, a pure revelation. The Supreme Lord’s name, His fame, His forms, His divine play, Crafted to spark revolution, in impious lives today. For this misdirected […]
Achyutam Keshavam Krishna Damodaram, Ram Narayanam Janaki Vallabham (Verse 1) Yo, the Vrndavana forest, from rains it improved, With dates, mangoes, and blackberries, all sweetly approved. Lord Krishna, the Supreme, with His boyfriends so grand, And Balarama too, they strolled through the land. The cows, filled with new grass, so healthy and fat, Their milk […]
Then came the initiation, a pivotal phase, Into Krishna’s divine names, dispelling all haze. The essential process, for this epoch, He said, A conduit to freedom, where enlightenment’s spread. With the sacred mantra, Nimai’s spirit took flight, Chanting with fervor, bathed in divine light. A sudden rapture, a transcendental delight, Swooning in bliss, beyond the […]
Yo, this ain’t no myth, no fable, This wisdom ancient, etched in time, eternally stable. Oṁ pūrṇam adaḥ pūrṇam idaṁ, hear the cosmic decree, The Source is whole, complete, and so are you and me. From this fullness, pure and grand, every other form takes flight, Like ripples from a stone, variety from a single […]
Srila Prabhupada How Can We Repay O! Srila Prabhupada, You crossed the rough seas during your life’s twilight, To bring living entities out of their material plight. A spiritual formula you took to one and all, How can we repay this infinite debt, if at all ? O! Srila Prabhupada, You made the Jaladuta and […]
(Verse 1) Yo, a fire sacrifice, ghee flowing free, Agni consumed it all, for all eyes to see. But too much buttery offerings, an overload, Left the fire god aching, in a heavy, bloated mode. Indigestion fierce, his brilliance declined, Only one curative came to his mind. (Verse 2) The Khandava forest, with herbs potent […]
(Verse 2) Karna looks at Krishna, wisdom in his gaze, “You know everything, through all of time’s maze. The destruction is coming, I see it so plain, With Duryodhana, Shakuni, fueling the pain. Dushasana beside them, their wicked intent, And I, caught in the middle, on ruin I’m bent. I dreamt of the Pandavas, victorious […]
(Chorus) Wrong friendship’s a prison, with walls strong and high, Blinding your vision, beneath a false sky. Like Karna and Duryodhana, a bond built on pride, Ignoring the wisdom that truth can provide. Krishna’s own counsel, a lifeline so clear, But loyalty’s chains held him captive in fear.
(Verse 1) Krishna chuckles softly, a knowing sound in the air, “So Karna, my friend, you don’t wish to take care Of the earth as it should be, with righteousness bright? The Pandavas’ victory will soon take its flight. Mark my words closely, when battle’s harsh call, Brings five mighty brothers to stand strong and […]
Yo, Hare Krishna. Story ’bout a saint, pure and true. Haridas Thakur, name you should know, Chanting Hare Krishna, watch his devotion grow. Living in a cave, humble and deep, Twenty-two hours chanting, while others would sleep. Sharing that space, a slithering friend, A venomous snake, right there ’til the end… or so it seemed! […]
The lotus feet of our spiritual master are the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service. I bow to his lotus feet with great awe and reverence. By his grace one can cross the ocean of material suffering and obtain the mercy of Krsna.
(Chorus) That death bell’s ringin’, a constant reminder, We’re all slippin’ away, no time to be kinder. Every heartbeat’s a step, towards the final call, The bell tolls for thee, for each and for all. Don’t ask who it’s for, the sound you perceive, It tolls for thee, believe, believe. (Outro) So listen closely, to […]
This little mouse, he lived in fear,Cats were his nightmare, year after year.One day, as a sage sat in trance,Body bent into the lotus stanceThis little mouse, with a nibble so slight,Chewed on the sage’s cloth with little bites!
Instrumental Intro) (1) je anilo prema-dhana koruna pracur heno prabhu kotha gela acarya-thakur Departed devotees are all gone into the world of light! And I alone sit ling’ring here; Their very memory is fair and bright, They inhabit the world of no fear Their after glow lingers and glitters Like stars upon some gloomy grove, […]
Yo, Priyavrata’s saga, a legend’s birth, Etched in time’s core, proving its worth. Manu, weary king, his reign complete, Stepped down from power, a noble retreat. Problem was Priyavrata, his son, detached from worldly snares, A student of Narada, whose wisdom beyond compare. Brahma intervened, with a heartfelt prayer, “Accept the throne, so citizens won’t […]
