JANMASTAMI 2002
KRISHNA JANMASTAMI AUGUST 31,2002
It is now the Lord's appearance day,
the most auspicious clearance day,
of our mountains and mountains of sins,
and a new life truly begins.
It is the day Lord Krishna,
by His Sweet Will took His birth,
on this very planet earth,
to reveal what life is worth,
and the greatest happiness,
victory and mirth.
It is the day we may remember again,
the most sweetest Childhood Pastimes,
of our Dearest Friend.
Everfresh is He,
in His Pastimes Eternally,
forever they are told,
and never do they grow old,
the Pastimes His Servants forever behold,
in greatest bliss,
with surrender most bold,
to their all splendorous,
Shyamasundara,
from Whom all does overflow.
O Krishna let us remember,
how Your Body was adorned,
with all opulence,
and priceless jewels,
just after you were Born,
on Your Transcendental,
and supremely, beautiful Baby Form.
O Krishna let us remember You,
in your father Vasudeva's arms,
crossing over an ocean of devastation,
peaceful and unalarmed.
Vasudeva walked below the Umbrella like Unlimited Heads,
of Your expansion Anananta Sesha,
Who eternally chants,
newer Pastimes of Yours,
without any cessation.
O Dark Boy Krishna,
let us remember You,
revealing your Universal Form,
from Your Mouth open wide,
to your most astounded mother Jashoda ,
who even saw herself inside,
looking within Your Mouth,
where more than mud did she find.
Everything was there,
and nothing did you hide,
though appearing like a naughty boy,
your mother Jashoda did chide,
You are the Supreme Lord,
the greatest souls abide.
O Baby Krishna,
let us remember You,
high on top the trnavarta demon,
a most powerful hurricane,
and yet weighing him down like a mountain,
although a Baby,
all were crying out your Names,
feeling the endless bliss,
of Krishna consciousness,
beyond the dull and mundane,
You landed on the ground unharmed,
as You are eternally the same,
to be picked up by Your Mother,
who could not even explain,
how You were protected but,
perhaps by the demigods reign.
O Krishna let us remember You,
as a Baby crawling on the floor,
carrying Vasudeva's shoes,
to Him on Your Head,
if we can not remember this,
are we not as good as dead?.
O Krishna let us remember You,
as a Child grabbing on to a calfs tail,
being dragged through the cow urine and dung in the mud,
witnessing this,the bliss of the Gopis,
Your greatest Devotees was an ecstatic overfowing flood.
O Krishna let us remember You,
just like Your Servants in Vrindavana,
and follow in the footsteps of Your Gopis,
so for You alone,
our hearts will be ecstaticly throbbing,
chanting Your sweetest Holy Names,
and never ever stopping,
HARE KRISHNA HARE KRISHNA,
KRISHNA KRISHNA HARE HARE,
HARE RAMA HARE RAMA,
RAMA RAMA HARE HARE!!!!!!!!!
