Srila Prabhupada
by Björn Åhsberg
Verse 1
Without fear, at the feet of God, descending from Golok
Going with the Jaladuta with the plan to take us home
After years of preparing and praying
Shakti avesha, topmost saint
An expansion of Nityananda's mercy
Anxious to make us realize the love we seek
Freeing the west from voidism and impersonalism
Teaching us that this world is a prison
And that the substantial self
Lies beyond both the physical and astral realms
The Gita says we are servants of the Lord
So let me study it 'as it is' and learn about the source
Those who master their senses are fit to teach
And can shed light on some of life's mysteries
So, let Krsna take birth and kill king Kamsa
And let me be a servant of Bhaktivedanta/
Refrain
Srila Prabhupada, is always present
In his books and in his sankirtan
Verse 2
The big mission started in Tompkins Square Park
Under a tree where he chanted from the core of his heart
And played kartalas until people came to listen
Before they knew it, they were vaishnavas in bliss
It's a high you don't have to come down from
Like a room full of LSD and what is the outcome?
It's love, pure love, and love alone
Love alone, and all else you leave alone
Let's get fixed up and rid of all the nonsense
One way ticket going back to Godhead
Associating with saints, as we grow united
To mature in the search for the ultimate goal of life
His Divine Grace expanded Vrindavan
By chanting, dancing and giving out prasadam
And of course the enlivening words
Enthusing us even after he left this mortal world
