Bhajan no. 22Love Light of the LordHe thought he was such a trend setter,And she dreamed she was a poet,And even the fisherman believed he was good,But little did they know it,Their time of youth was burning away,In the box were 80 matches,The last stick of flame became the old man's cane,Their silly poems were burned to ashesChorus:But in Caitanya's Love Light,Lord Caitanya's Love Light,In that Love Light of the LordAll things became alrightBut the world was not set on fire,Despite their lofty wish,And even the watchful fisherman,Was swallowed by the Fish,In time the trends of the gentlemen,Became broken cups of clay,That leaked the tea, stained his teeth,And soon were thrown awayChorus:But in Caitanya's Love Light,Lord Caitanya's Love Light,In that Love Light of the LordAll things became alrightNot once their poem was a prayer,Never once the Holy Name,They were each a box of matches,Burning themselves in flames,Did they feel their separation,From Lord Krishna's loving flute?Or spend their time composing rhymes,In praise of wine and fools?Chorus:But in Caitanya's Love Light,Lord Caitanya's Love Light,In that Love Light of the LordAll things became alrightHe asked us to call out,Call out the Holy Names,In the Love Light of the Lord,Love learned to dance againIn Caitanya's Love Light,Lord Caitanya's Love Light,In that Love Light of the LordWe brightly sailed the nightIn Caitanya's Love Light,Lord Caitanya's Love Light,In that Love Light of the LordAll things became alright
