Jaya Prabhupada [English translation]

Lotus feet giving me such shelter

Lotus hands brush my tears away

Lotus eyes sewing my broken heart

You're rescuing me from my endless pain

Jaya jaya Prabhupada!

vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

gańgāra paraśa hoile paścate pāvan

darśane pavitra koro-ei tomāra guṇ1

Srila Prabhupad patita pavan

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 pay

Srila Prabhupad ki jay!

My dear grandfather-spiritual master

Unto you I must humbly pray

That this cerpant-like non-devotee

In the dust of your feet will stay

Jaya jaya Prabhupada!

Vande guroh shri caranaravindam

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

hari-sthāne aparādhe tāre hari-nām

tomā sthāne aparādhe nāhi paritrāṇ2

Srila Prabhupad patita pavan!

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

Vande guroh shri caranaravindam

Jaya Srila Prabhupada!

Vande guroh shri caranaravindam

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. 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.
