those who make the thakuras clothes
somehow seem to know
the colors and how they combine
into each dress and look so utterly fine
they also listen to even the children well
for you never can tell who will reveal the next sign
and decorate them with full and petal rose leis
and see how they swing as the thakuras sway
and in the fresh new afternoon
spin down the long and winding road to see the sufferers swoon
upon the whitecaps of a chilly day
round the about beach hill and Bhakta Blades kutir
circling the church things become clear
and the cobwebs in our brains
slowly but surly wane
allowing us to follow our dream
and return by the cruiser king's smooth as silk and safe as cream
greeted by the mellow fellow who didn't ask us why
he just joked with us and got us off to bells
our spirits follow the kirtan and swell
then in the evening the thakuras hear the lions laugh
with lemon jellow mukut and effulgence fore and aft
laying them down to rest i look at them and sigh
and pray to receive divine love for their service and servants
