Song: Swami from India
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 […]
Song: Hymn of the Earth
(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 […]
Song: The Final Test
anta-kāle cha mām eva smaran muktvā kalevaram yaḥ prayāti sa mad-bhāvaṁ yāti nāsty atra saṁśayaḥ At life’s final end, with body cast aside, Whoever remembers Me, will with Me abide. He attains My nature, eternal and pure, Of this, O Arjuna, be confident and sure. (Intro) Yo, this is the final lesson, the ultimate test, […]
Song: Swans & Crows
(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 […]
Song: Literature for Swanlike Men
(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 […]
Song: Take the Limits Off
(Verse 1) Yo, check it, fam, listen close to the start, Vai and I, with aspiration in heart. To Utah’s plains, our journey we brought, A radio station, the prize that we sought. A concrete vision, a mission defined, To spread a message, connect humankind. Yeah, a substantial task, a mountain to scale, A broadcast […]
Song: Rainy Season in Vrndavan
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 […]
Song: Invocation Sri Isopanishad
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 […]
Song: How Can We Repay You (If At All)
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 […]
Song; Burning of the Khandava Forest
(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 […]
Song; Karna & Krishna Final Part
(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 […]
Song: Durvasa & Ambarish
Durvasa was a yogi and sage who often got enraged when anyone upstaged him. Yeah he was a diva expansion of Shiva the god of destruction, who causes dysfunction, wears snakes, bakes the three worlds in lakes of fire when times arrow expires.
(Song) Prayers of Queen Kunti
As Krishna mounts his chariot, Dwarka bound, Queen Kunti’s heart pounds, sadness abounds, Her prayers take flight, a farewell plea, bittersweet Krishnha, Protector of dharma, our guiding light, By our side in every fight Lotus eyes, lotus feet, shining so bright illuminating our path through many a dark night. Without You, our fame and deeds […]
