    Chanting the names of the Lord

    (Narasimha Song)

    Chours: Chanting, chanting, chanting the names of the Lord (2 times)


    Hiranyakashipur was king
    And an evil one was he
    He bargained with Lord Brahma
    For immortality
    Not to die in the day
    Not to die in the night
    Not to die on the land
    Not to die in the sea
    Not to die by animal
    Not to die by man
    He wanted to live eternally
    Chours: Chanting, chanting, chanting the names of the Lord (2 times)
    Prahlad the boy devotee
    Was the son of the evil king
    His father´s pride and joy was he
    Until he heard him sing
    Hare Krshna Hare Krshna
    Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
    Hare Rama Hare Rama
    Rama Rama Hare Hare
    Chours: Chanting, chanting, chanting the names of the Lord (2 times)
    This chanting made the king so mad
    That he tried to kill his son
    But Prahlad kept chanting
    Krishna´s names
    So it could not be done
    He threw him to demons
    Who boiled him in oil
    Who put him in the wind and rain
    But Prahlad kept chanting Krishna´s name
    And it was all in vain.
    Chours: Chanting, chanting, chanting the names of the Lord (2 times)
    Hiranyakashipur did yell
    -Prahlad is you God here!?-
    He struck the coloum
    With his sword
    And Lord Nrishimha appeared
    It wasn´t by day
    It wasn´t by night
    It wasn´t by land
    It wasn´t by sea
    It wasn´t by man
    It wasn´t by beast
    It was by the Supreme Personality
    Chours: Chanting, chanting, chanting the names of the Lord (2 times)
