Isn't it a pity, when a prisoner thinks he's free
For he doesn't pursue the path that will change his destiny
Isn't it a pity, when a prisoner thinks he's free
For he can't find a way to counteract the grief
Isn't it a pity, when a prisoner thinks he's free
For he won't ever attain any lasting relief
Isn't it a pity, when a prisoner thinks he's free
For he won't be able to relish a higher ecstasy
Isn't it a pity, when a prisoner thinks he's free
Just around the corner they're soaring blissfully
Humble service to Sri Krishna & his dear devotees
Subdues blinding envy, lust & greed
Then the path of Krishna's sweetness
Comes through to greet us
And with firm determination
We pursue His lotus feet
Our sure & swift release
For Joy & Lasting Peace
