Reincarnation
05:01
|
|||
I remember when I was a baby
my mind and body were so small
With the passing of time they have changed completely
but I am the same person ,that’s for sure
I am an embodied soul passing on a journey
from childhood to youth and on to old age
I know that one day I have to leave this body
just as an actor has to leave the stage
Never was there a time when we did not exist
and we shall exist until time unending
Those who are wise don’t try to resist
knowing that the end brings another...
Reincarnation, after death is something more
Reincarnation, we’ve all been here before
Reincarnation, in this birth and death cycle
Reincarnation, we reap what we sow
Everyone who is born, is sure to die
and after death, we’ll have to die again
We can escape from this cycle if we cry
for the Lord’s mercy by chanting His holy name
And our desires at the moment we depart
determine the next body we’ll occupy
Those who remember God as they breathe their last
return to him in the spiritual sky
Where every word is a song, every step is a dance
everything’s eternal and full of bliss and cognizance
Been away for so long, its time to go back home
emancipate your soul and attain freedom from…
Reincarnation, birth and death no more
Reincarnation, it’s time to close the door
Reincarnation, escape from the cycle
Reincarnation, we reap what we sow
Reincarnation, our futures in our hands
Reincarnation, try to understand
Reincarnation…

Village of Peace
04:07
|
|||
Take life to be gentle, set your brother free
Take time to be gentle, let your sister breathe
Leave out the oppressor, the force of one
Leave out the aggressor, don’t forget the Holy one
Find time to be gentle, set your lover free
Live life to be gentle, let the river flow to the sea
Village of peace, facing truth music
Village of peace, peace and love music
Village of peace, fighting ignoble music
Village of peace, loving God music
Say goodbye to your anger, the heart full of pride
Say goodbye to your ego, full of lies just tell your mind
Live life to be gentle, fight the hate you find there
Live life to be gentle, live your days in prayer
Village of peace, facing truth music
Village of peace, peace and love music
Village of peace, fighting ignoble music
Village of peace, loving God music
give love to the animals
give love to the saint
give love to the cow
give love to the animal eater
give love to the rainbow
give love to the sun shining
give love to the rain
give love to the old man cleaning
give love to the beggar and the king
give love to the murderer
give love to the squirrel in the tree
give love to the fools and rascals
give love to the lovers
give love to the enemy
give love to the demons
give love to the wicked and righteous
give love to the tree
give love to the abuser
give love to the sadhu
give love to the president
give love to the anger
give love to the anger
give love to the anger
give love to.....
Village of peace, facing truth music
Village of peace, peace and love music
Village of peace, fighting ignoble music
Village of peace, loving God music

Vraja's Queen
04:31
|
|||
Krsna cannot be approached directly
He’s only known through you
By rendering service to you
we render service to Krsna too
My direct approach is useless
‘cause I’m bereft of purity
I want to know how to surrender
I desperately need your mercy
Vraja’s Queen, a new moon has arisen in the land
You are without self-interest
or personal motivation
You purely serve just for Krsna’s pleasure
with out care for reputation
Name, fame, house, family, fortune,
You gave it all up for Him
But me, like a dog chasing it’s tail
I follow my own whim
Vraja’s Queen, a new moon has arisen in the land,
Your bodily luster glows a dazzling golden hue
In Vraja’s pleasure groves, Syama’s heart is sold to you

Pastimes
05:19
|
|||
He placed His red lips to His flute
filling its holes with tender fingers
Village people, their minds fixed
His sweet pastimes they remember
Animals stop moving as if sleeping
enchanted by flute songs grace
Steady lightning on His face
a smile like a jeweled necklace
Cows wandering on a yonder mountain side
they hear the sound of His flute
All the trees and creepers feeling joy inside
spring forth flowers and fruit
They do not pray for diamonds or rubies or gold
They just want to remember the pastimes of the Lord
Maddening aroma, sweet like honey
from His garland of jasmine flowers
For His pleasure all the bees sing loudly
of their enchanters magical powers
Acclaiming their song gratefully
He plays his flute to repay
as all of Vraja listens lovingly
He steals their hearts away
Stunned in ecstasy feeling so happy
Yamuna river stops flowing
She requests the wind for some mercy,
dust from His feet glowing
They do not pray for diamonds or rubies or gold
They just want to remember the pastimes of the Lord
The mighty storm cloud is afraid of offending
so he stays overhead and shades like an umbrella
Sending showers of flowers pleasingly
he gently produces sounds of thunder
Kind Mother Earth she is a crying
pained by cows hard hooves
Through her forest He is strolling
all her sufferings removed
He plays his flute to call His cows and friends
Vraja’s people are waiting
Counting His cows on a string of gems
in the west the sun is setting
They do not pray for diamonds or rubies or gold
They just want to remember the pastimes of the Lord

Woe To Him
03:57
|
|||
(Inspired by the Bible, Habakkuk 2:9, 12, 15-17)
Woe to him who builds a realm by unjust gain to set his nest high
Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and establishes a town by crime
The violence you have done will destroy you
and your destruction of the animals will terrify you
For you have shed, you have shed, man’s blood
You have shed, you have shed, animal’s blood
Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors pouring it from the wineskin
‘till they are drunk, so that he can gaze on their naked bodies
Now it’s your turn to drink and be exposed
The cup from the Lord’s right hand is coming around to you
and disgrace will cover your glory
The violence you have done will destroy you
and your destruction of the animals will terrify you
For you have shed, you have shed, man’s blood
you have shed, you have shed, animal’s blood

Life Comes From Life
04:31
|
|||
Life comes from life
but they say, life comes from matter
Life comes from love
but they say, love doesn’t matter
Reduce our personality to a bag of blood and bones
saying constitutionally we’re made of sticks and stones
Though its never been proven in the laboratory
they teach that their claim is more than just a theory
In reality it’s dogma based on blind faith
atheistic science is the opiate of the state
They’ve never taken matter and produced life
yet their education institutions teach our children these lies
Life comes from life
but they say, life comes from matter
Life comes from love
but they say, love doesn’t matter
It’s a mechanistic age only concerned with systems
maintaining an indifference to all of us people
Impersonalistic ways are destined to fail
because they are based on an erroneous principle
Where law ends it calls in days of tyranny
the age of great, great, great, men’s been replaced with ant hill multiplicity
People sell their souls for a wage and their wages for their vices
gone are the days of the sage, now no one gives God thanks and praises
Tell me, what’s the chemical formula for love?
Tell me, what’s the chemical formula for love?
Life comes from life
but they say, life comes from matter
Life comes from God
but they say, God doesn’t matter

Money Can't Buy Love
05:12
|
|||
Those who take what they need and leave the rest aside
they are the people with whom peace and love reside
Those who take what they need and leave aside the rest
they are the people who God blessed
Money can’t buy love!
If you live only for your greed, then the rest will die
so take only what you need and leave the rest aside
From whom has it all come from? To whom does it all belong?
From whom has it all come from? How can you call it your own?
Money can’t buy love!
How many clothes can a person wear?
How many cars can a person drive?
How much food can a person eat?
How many shoes can you wear on two feet?
Their hands are bigger than their pocket
their eyes are bigger than their stomach
They’re not satisfied with their own worth
they wouldn’t be satisfied if they owned the whole earth
Live according to your need, not according to your greed
Money can’t buy... love!

Self Realization
04:50
|
|||
If you are silent you will hear him, crying
beneath a cover of pretentious claim
If you are quiet and come near him, hiding
behind a facade of fallacious fame
If you are near you will scare him, insecure
under a fable of glamorous name
If you are there, you beside him
in the mirror of pretenders domain
Pretender man, you hide behind your mask
You don’t like me, you’ll destroy me
Pretender man, you don’t know who you are
You’re just like me, you are me
If everybody would clean their own world
then the whole world would be clean
If everybody would give love to themselves
then everybody would give love to the world
Clean your own world!
Clean the whole world!
Give love to your self!
Give love to the world!
If you are wise you will hear me, crying
“Wake up victim of pretentious claim”
If you are kind you’ll come near me
with out any duplicity or shame
If you are sincere you’ll share with me, so sure
of my trust in your name
If you are there, you beside me, observer
in the mirror of loves domain
Lover, now you’ve taken off your mask
you’re just like me, you are me
Lover, now I know who you are
you have saved me, from me
Give me self realization!
