O gracious Lord, if like a bee

My soul cannot imbed itself

Deep in the Lotus of Thy Feet,

What comfort can I find in life?

What can I gain with wealth untold,

Neglecting Thee, supremest Wealth?

 

I take no pleasure in the sight

Of the most lovely infant's face,

If all its loveliness reveals

No trace of Thy dear features there.

Moonlight is meaningless to me

As darkest night, if Thy love's moon

Rise not in my soul's firmament.

The purest wife's unspotted love

Is stained, if in it is not set

The priceless gem of love divine.

 

O Lord, whenever doubt of Thee,

Born of base error and neglect,

Assails my mind, I writhe in pain

As from a serpant's poisonous fangs!

What more, O Master, shall I say?

Thou art my heart's most precious Jewel,

The Home of Everlasting Joy.

 

 

 

(sung by Narendra)
