nāma oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya Kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatākā-svāmin iti nāmine
namo ācāryapādāya nitāi-kṛpa-pradāyine
gaura-kathā dhāma dāya nagara-grāma tāriṇe

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāminn iti nāmine
namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe
nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāraṇam

 

"I offer my respectful obeisances unto my spiritual master, the deliverer of the fallen souls. His mercy turns the dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains."

Dear Guru Maharāj,

Please accept my respectful and humble obeisances on to your lotus feet. My small offering to you on this blessed day....

 

Victory flag, a glorious one

Srila Prabhupada’s dear son

 

Always Fluttering in high spirits 

Attacking Māya in all its merits 

 

Rising above the horizons so high

Helping our bhakti creeper climb high

 

From Gordon John to Gaur Dhan Jana

You are one among Gaurāṅga’s clan

 

Prabhupāda’s dancing “white elephant”

To preaching in Bengāli so fluent 

 

You reside in every disciple’s heart

Your Love and Compassion fervent 

 

You took away our karmas

As you led us through Parikramā

 

You joined Kṛṣṇa’s army

With Huge kartals as your armour 

 

From a world of Māyā to Māyāpur 

You gave us a world of TOVP

 

We watched you Never Give up

We watched how Māya Gave up

 

Nāmahaṭṭa, Bhakti Vṛkṣa to spiritual Safari 

You took us on the path of limitless joy

 

With your daily class on Caitanya Līla 

You gave us an entry to Gaur Līla

 

You are an epitome of devotee care

Devotees heart blissfully flare

 

You travelled the globe

To take us toward Kṛṣṇa's abode

 

You endeavour to fulfil all the instructions

You sheltered us and gave initiations

 

As Māya plays her trick

You blessed us with Jagannātha's stick

 

Nothing could stop you in this mission

As you gave Guru Paramparā’s admission  

 

Raising your hands, loudly you call out Gaurāṅga Nityānanda 

Nourishing our hearts with real Ānanda 

 

Fifty years of service to Holy Dhām

To spreading the Holy Nāma

 

Continuing to Inspire many souls

As Fulfilling Prabhupāda instructions are your Life and soul 

 

In this world full of misery

The only solace is your mercy 

 

As preaching is your feat

So are anartha’s defeat

 

Prabhupāda said preaching is the essence

You proved it as your quintessence

 

Bodily pangs on you keep lingering

But your consciousness is unfathoming

 

You gave us Showers of nectar 

As Your compassion is beyond vector 

 

Today is a happy day, your Vyāsapūja day

For your mercy, I humbly pray 

 

To help me  serve and please you my dear spiritual master

The way you served and pleased your spiritual master
 

Your insignificant spiritual daughter
