Cmp 40. It Was A Miracle



CHAITANYA MAHAPRABHU

After bathing Lord Chaitanya
In the house of Shrivasa,
They dressed Him well.
Then at His lotus feet fell.

They prayed for the deliverance,
Of people oppressed by miseries,
As He came with a purpose
To remove their sufferings.

They brought different offerings,
Oil, camphor, precious gems,
Silver, gold, silk clothes, rice,
Musk, saffron, darba grass,

Sandal wood, tulsi leaves,
Bunch of flowers and fruits,
Butter, dahi, milk, coconuts,
Mungh dal, variety of sweets,

Sugar cane, Ganga water
In a large metal container,
And whatever best they thought
With all love they brought.

All the Ganga water, he drank.
All the food items he took
And ate to His heart content
As a mystic, the one greatest.

With their gaping mouths
All the astonished devotees
Watched Him doing this
Miracle with wide open eyes.

The Lord told a devotee
"Do you remember me?
Once I came as a doctor
And cured your fever, "

To Gangadasa, he said,
"You were to be captured
When Muslim men chased
But how were you saved? "

"They came fast in a boat,
But I brought my boat,
And to the shore, took you,
Before they could catch you."

Like this, events after events,
One by one, He told devotees,
With all surprise, they heard.
Whatever He said, they believed.
