My Dearest Spiritual Father,
Please accept my most respectful obeisances at your lotus feet. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda. All glories to Your Divine Grace.
I just want to express my gratitude to you for all the sacrifices you have made for Śrīla Prabhupāda, Mahāprabhu, devotees and this movement.
On this most auspicious occasion of your Vyāsa-pūjā please accept this little offering at your lotus feet in the form of a poem.

Your smile is so beautiful
Your heart is so soft
Without you in my life I was lost
My desire is to serve you always
My desire is to please your heart
Your love for everyone is like an ocean vast
Many witness your sacrifice
Many witness your enormity
The mere presence of yours grants people serenity
When I think of you I feel ecstatic
When I think of you I feel emotion
Thinking of you my heart fills with devotion
Preaching is your mission
Giving Kṛṣṇa to every soul
O dear devotee of Rādhārāṇī, to please you is my life's goal.
Māyāpur is your residence
Gaurāṅga is your Life
Prabhupāda is your master and his love in your heart is rife
Kṛṣṇa is in Goloka
You are so near
My dear Guru Mahārāja the shelter of your lotus feet removes all fear

Begging for your mercy and forgiveness for any offences I may have committed at your lotus feet.
I beg for your blessings for strength so I can become a sincere devotee of the Lord.
May with Lord Narasiṁhadeva’s mercy you recover very fast as we all desire your personal association for many many more years to come.
Your most insignificant servant,
Puṇya Śloka Kṛṣṇa Dāsa
