Gurudev! Your Holiness Romapada Swami Maharaja,
You are like rain, showering unlimited Mercy.
Now it’s up to us to catch Your Mercy.
Are we just hoping to get Your Mercy?
Or are we extending our hands to catch Your Mercy?
Or are we bringing a big bucket to catch Your Mercy?
The choice is ours, it seems, to catch Your Mercy.
Since our spiritual growth depends on Your Mercy.
Gurudev please be merciful!
Irrespective of our qualifications, our life depends on Your Mercy!
Our lifeline is Your Mercy!
Our only hope is Your Mercy!
Gurudev, You are the most Merciful!
The representative of Lord Nityananda!
The representative of Lord Balarama!
The personification of mercy!
Jay Srila Gurudev!
Your aspiring servant,
