Guest guest Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 That day when My Lord beckons me, I shall be on my way to my Mother's Home. There – where I was 'born', and where I am going to 'die'...and live ever-after. Prasanthi - my native place, my town, my Mother's home, my Home - in this birth or the births in the past or forever. The soil where I belong to. The soil on which My Lord has walked. I sit on my berth of Prasanthi Express and sing this to myself. With thumping heart, trembling hands, voice choked with bliss, I shall sing to myself...looking out of the train's window – the lush paddy fields and the blue sky....Swami's beauty everywhere. The journey home is never too long... My heart arrives before the train... I'm going back to where my heart was light...When my pillow was a ship, I sailed through the night... T he journey home is never too long...When open arms are waiting there... Yes, My short and sweet Baba is waiting thereWith His arms wide open for me and only me Wearing an orange robe of LightHe comes daily and sprinkles bliss on our parched hearts Rotating His hand, He sends us to worlds unknownTakes away everything from us except the Love that we have grown in our souls I want to feel the way that I did then And think my wishes through before I wish again... Every morning He will pass by me ask me, " *Bangaaroo, Tiffin chesaavaa? " (*Bangaaroo, Did you have your breakfast today?) I will reply "Chesaanu, Swami! Idhigo, ippude." (Yes, Swami! Just now) He will ask me again, " Elaa undhi tiffin? " (How was the breakfast?) I shall say, "Swami! Brahmaandam Swami!" (Delicious, Swami! Heavenly) He would give a naughty sweet expression and ask me, " Avunaa? Antha baagundhaa? Emi tiffin emiti? " (Was it so delicious? What breakfast was it?) I will look into His Lotus eyes and reply, "Swami! Idhigo, Mee thenela maatalu, palakarimpula amritham." (Swami! Here, the nectar of these words You spoke to me just now, the elixir of Your greeting) And then Swami walks away....not before filling my little heart with "one out-of-the-world smile". *Bangaaroo is a Telugu word meaning "Gold". Many a time, Swami calls His children "Bangarooooooooooooooooo" expressing His overflowing 'affection'. ....mmmmmm....In fact a stronger word than 'affection' is needed to describe it....May be 'warmth'...........I don't know. (But I feel it J) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
