Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Krishna Ni Bhe Gha-Ni, Baroo !
Darkness coming around,
And every body fight with the brother
Every body wants control,
Don't hesitate to kill one-another
So come back as Jesus
Come back and save the world
Bless all the future of every boy and girl
Come back as Rama,
Forgive us for what we've done
Come back as Allah,
Come back as anyone
CHORUS: .......
Religion is the reason,
The world is breaking up into pieces
Colour of the people,
Keeps us locked in hate please release us
So Come down and help us,
Save all the little ones
They need a teacher,
And you are the only one
We can't rely on,
To build a better world
A world that's for children,
A world that's for everyone
CHORUS:.....
(Interlude)
Time is healer, and time moves on
Time don't wait for any one
So, Tell me you'll be back
But that will take some time
I waiting ////...... (with interlude)
I'm waiting, yeah yeah......
Come back as Jesus
Come back and save the world
We need a teacher,
and You are the only one
Come back as Rama
Forgive us for what we've done
Come back as Allah
Come back for every one.......

"Krishna" by Colonial Cousins is a song that speaks about the need for a savior to come and help the world in times of darkness and turmoil. The beginning lyrics talk about the chaos in the world and how everybody is fighting with each other, which creates a call for a higher power to come and save everyone. The song then goes on to mention various religious figures such as Jesus, Rama, and Allah, and how they can all be the one to come back and save the world. There is an emphasis on the need for forgiveness and how it can help change the world for the better. The song also mentions the importance of children and how building a better world is something that can benefit everyone.
The lyrics of "Krishna" convey a powerful message about unity and the need to come together as a society to create a better future. The song highlights how religion can create differences and how people need to embrace the similarities between them to create a world that is beneficial to all. The use of various religious figures shows the universality of the message and how everyone can come together to create a better future. The song ends with a chant, i.e., "Govinda Guruhari Gopala hu," which emphasizes the spiritual element further.
