Текст песни Tirtha Yatra - Tyler Childers

I wanna go to India
Put faces to paper
Put visuals to words that I've read
Get a better understandin'
Of the culture that's surroundin'
All the scriptures I've been poundin'
Watchin' play out inside my head

I'd go to Kurukshetra
You know I couldn't even tell you
If I am or not pronouncin' it right
But comin' from a cousin lovin
Clubfoot somethin' somethin'
Backwoods searcher I would hope
That you'd admire the try

I'd go to all the places
Where Nurada stood
I'd read the Bhagavad Gita
I'd read the song by God
You know the Bhagavad Gita
You know the Gita's just a chapter
In an epic 'bout a footbridge wide
I'd love to tell you 'bout it, though
I'm 'fraid it'd take forever
I'm 'fraid it'd forever and
I'd hate to take up all your time

But anyways, I read it
I read it to the credits
And Viyasa wrote it masterfully
It took a little under two years
For me to make it through
But now I'm here and tellin' you
It changed me metaphysically

It taught me all about dharma
The thing I ought to do
Till the big man dances
And starts it all anew
(Start it again)

It taught me all about dharma
The thing I ought to do
Till the big man dances
And starts it all anew

I wanna tirtha yatra
Roll like the Pandavas
With my brothers and my mom and wife
All the boys could bring their ladies
Cause the one that Indra gave me
Is the momma to my babies and
I ain't about to split my nights

It wouldn't be all different
To how we're actually livin'
'cept we'd leave behind all our merch
But we'd bring along our fiddles
Basses, and rental guitars and mandolins
Cause that's the way that dharma works

We'd play Louisville Breakdown
We'd play Shelvin Rock
We'd sing Hare Krishna
We'd play a song by God
