take this yellow silk
design an outfit for Gaura Purnima
trim it broad blue brocade with sumanas flowers
make vests with cuffs and armbands too
cause i'm a sumanas child
and by offering my sumanas flower
and by offering my sumanas flower at the lotus feet of Mahaprabhu
my material life will be through
rose and mum leis
sway with their dancing motion this fine day
spinning down the winding street
birds singing and leaves coming out on the trees
left on main street past Mahamuni's post box
into lion's park cooled by the breeze
up skater's hill where they're perfuming so many feats
under the first highway to point and the hook
there's a couple of e bikes come to have a good look
in the cove kites are flying high
over head of us sprinting by
up the avenue to campa hatti
ratha-bhojana-vrksa sees us bow and is happy
at the ashram gate mi ray is there
welcoming us hoping that with bells the incense fragrance will soon fill the air
gold and soft yellow, Hiranya Kasipu, nightdress
dancing all night removing all stress
waiting for sunrise bells in brahma muhurta
the day begins
