Come you lost servants no matter where you’ve been
Mahaprabhu is here to take you home again
Put down your suffering and dance to his drum
Hari nama sankirtan is a whole lot of fun
It was a scrabble game
Using transcendental names
Then there was a clue to give
Come and see the Thakuras in their diet olive
Leis are of deep green pompoms
And heralded by angels playing trumpets
Murkha and I circle the research park to main street don’t want to be slow
Over the first highway to the dvitya campa hatti pedalers on the go
Seymour’s museum is the destination to be made
Join up with the roadies on parade
Talking with friends on the thoroughfare
Sharing pictures of the diet olive the Thakuras wear
The hour is getting late Murkha and I have to move fast
In the race to the sandhya don’t want to come in last
Around the spinner’s church and Bhakta Blade’s kutir
Climbing the beach hill the mountain men cheer
But their hearts will only be won
If the Thakuras accept as service what we have done
I take my leave at the shop
Leaving Murkha to hammer till he drops
Bowing to the ratha-bhojana-vrksa chasing the kalarupa
Over the chain across the asrama path ali-oop
Greeted by cowboys with lassoes patrolling the land
Dressing the thakuras for rest
“in the ninth” this their Sunday best
They don’t want to hesitate
Start their evening pastimes before it gets too late
Wondering how the thakuras should wear Friday the 13th today?
Last night working out the schedule checking holidays
Mahaprabhu and Giridhari in vests with “ratna bahu”
Jeweled arms and leis of roses and mums the word
Wondering will Murkha and I pedal well?
Hammering as if floating hear the beasts yell
As roadies act like messengers weaving through
Right in their view
With the go light turning red
While at the shop I take leave and Murkha nods his head
Only sprinting will take him over the first highway
Through the car park around the research park
To bow his head to the ratha-bhojana-vrksa dusting
The kalarupa on a lark
But it’s only the cottontails to greet him when he arrives
Blue Giridhari is wearing the white tonight
While Gandharvika and Mahaprabhu
wear white trim and powder blue
to enjoy night pastimes
