Jaya Srila Prabhupada

Lotus feet giving me such shelter

Lotus hands brush my tears away

Lotus eyes soothing my broken heart

You're rescuing me from my endless pain

Jaya jaya Prabhupada!

vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

(All glories to Srila Prabhupada, we offer our respectful obeisances unto you, our spiritual master.)

gańgāra paraśa hoile 

paścate pāvandar śane 

pavitra koro-ei tomāra guṇ 1

Srila Prabhupad patita pavan

 (After bathing in the waters of the sacred Ganges many times, one becomes purified, but just by the sight of you, the fallen souls are purified. Srila Prabhupada you are the savior of the most fallen)

Param guru gave books to cure me

Of diseases that come with this age.

Goloka full of spiritual pleasure

He reveals on every page.

Jaya jaya Prabhupada!

vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

jahara nikate gele papa

dure jay emona doyala

prabhu keba kotha pay2

Srila Prabhupad ki jay!

(Where does anyone find such a merciful personality by whose mere audience all sins go far away? All glories to Srila Prabhupada)

My dear grandfather-spiritual master

Unto you I must humbly pray

That this serpent-like non-devotee

In the dust of your feet will stay

Jaya jaya Prabhupada!

vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

hari-sthāne aparādhe tāre

 hari-nām tomā sthāne 

aparādhe nāhi paritrāṇ 3

Srila Prabhupad patita pavan!

(The holy name delivers one who has committed an offense to Lord Hari, but if one commits an offense to you, there is no means of deliverance. Srila Prabhupada you are the savior of the most fallen)

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam

Jaya jaya Prabhupada!

1. After bathing in the waters of the sacred Ganges many times, one becomes purified, but just by the sight of you, the fallen souls are purified.

2 Where does anyone find such a merciful personality by whose mere audience all sins go far away?

3 The holy name delivers one who has committed an offense to Lord Hari, but if one commits an offense to you, there is no means of deliverance.
