Shelter of the Holy Name

Kaliyuga is progressingAnd distresses are increasingYet oblivious of the sameI continue to live like a puffed up foolForgetting Krishna all the way.Katrina lashed me yesterdaySwine flu is devouring me todayYet I continue to live like a puffed up foolForgetting Krishna all the way.Prices are soaringVegetations are disappearingYet I continue to live like a puffed up foolForgetting Krishna all the way.Skyscrapers are caving in into deadly seasTerror looms large in my midnight dreamsYet I continue to live like a puffed up foolForgetting Krishna all the way.Glaciers are meltingAnd the seas are swellingYet I continue to live like a puffed up foolForgetting Krishna all the way.So great is my misfortuneThat I fail to decipher the path of good fortuneIn the darkness of hell I gropeLike a blindfolded lassForgetting Krishna all the way.In this deep slumber of ignorance I sleepAnd this is my diseaseWhich, only Gauranga can healO Gauranga!When will the rays of the Holy Name dawn on me?Cintamani Sakhi Devi Dasi
