Lyrics 3

[Guest guest]

Some lyrics from my latest musical Dhruva Maharaja.

 

*·* Sages *·*

 

May He, who relieves the distress of His devotees

kill all your enemies.

The Holy Name of the Lord in Itself

is as powerful as the Lord Himself!

 

Just by chanting

and hearing

His Holy Name,

the whole world can easily attain

protection from death.

 

 

*·* Manu *·*

 

My dear son:

Your killing of so many Yaksas is not approved by any authority,

neither it befits our family.

 

Although you are greatly aggrieved by the death of your brother.

Just consider your punishment.

For one Yaksa's offense, you have killed many others,

who were all innocent.

 

It is far from easy to reach the abode of Lord Sri Hari.

You are destined to go there, being His pure devotee.

Your life my son, is meant for exemplary behavior.

I am therefore, quite surprised to see,

how how you could have acted so abominably.

By your action Dhruva you have upset Kuvera.

You should pacify him properly,

before his rage effects our family.

 

Lord Vishnu is very pleased when His devotees

treat others with patience, mercy and equality.

Control your animosity.

As you should know,

on the path of perfection anger is the foremost foe.

 

 

*·* Kuvera *·*

 

I'm very glad o Dhruva,

o sinless son of a ksatriya,

that by the instructions of your family,

you have given up all of your enmity.

Our identification is the cause of reincarnation

Actually you haven't killed the Yaksas,

nor have they killed your brother.

For the ultimate cause of our behavior to each other

is the Lord's eternal energy of time.

 

My dear Dhruva: Please, please come forward.

May you always be graced by the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

Only He can free us from the repeated cycle of birth and death.

We have heard, you are constantly engaged in serving Sri Hari.

You are worthy to ask any boon from me.

Feel free to ask me whatever you want.

 

 

*·* Visnudutas *·*

 

Dear Maharaj: Bhadram te.

Please listen to what we're about to say.

When you were five years old,

you pleased the Lord by your self control.

Therefore you're worthy to aboard

this vimana, sent by the Lord.

 

As Lord Sri Visnu's representatives

we have come to bring you back home with us.

Back to Vishnuloka.

As by your austerities you have earned

for what great rishis and devas yearn.

 

Please come, you are welcome to live there eternally.
