Appearance Day of Lord Balarama

A Poem to Our Beloved Balarama

A whiteish complexion,

unlimited affection,

for Krsna lovers far and wide.

Oh mighty brother of Krsna, the original spiritual master,

Have mercy on this fallen fool, who begs for nothing but bhakti faster.

Forever giving us direction,

Always under your protection,

And destroying our pride.

Oh mighty brother of Krsna, the original spiritual master,

Have mercy on this fallen fool, who begs for nothing but bhakti faster.

Presenting our heart's reflection,

Curing our our material infection,

As Lord Nityananda, you spread Krsna Consciousness worldwide!

Oh mighty brother of Krsna, the original spiritual master,

Have mercy on this fallen fool, who begs for nothing but bhakti faster.

Dancing with the Gopis,

empowering Srila Prabupada to preach to the Hippies,

All your pastimes, I cried (of joy)

Oh mighty brother of Krsna, the original spiritual master,

Have mercy on this fallen fool, who begs for nothing but bhakti faster.

The Darling Son of Rohini,

Lover of Varuni,

You are also known as karunanidhan, or the ocean of mercy!

The master of Devotional Sanga,

You dragged Hastinapura to Ganga,

Your dance is better than Bhangra!

Grabbing the hindlegs of the demon donkey Dhenuka,

Smashing the head of the giant Pralamba,

You constantly saved the denizens of Vrindavana!

Oh great Lord Balarama,

Your smile charms even Cupid,

Your glance cures even the most stupid!

All Glories to Lord Ananta on his Appearance Day!

Who descended for the sake of sharing the bliss of loving Krsna!

Oh mighty brother of Krsna, the original spiritual master,

Have mercy on this fallen fool, who begs for nothing but bhakti faster.

Gaura Prema Anande ... Haribol!!!

All Glories to Lord Balarama, All Glories to Mother Rohini, All Glories to Lord Nityananda, All Glories to Lakshmana, All Glories to Guru and Gauranga!!!!
