Longing for the Lotus Feet

 

Longings for the Lotus Feet, from birth to birth,

With various bodies one could clad,

As minerals, not happy at all!

 

Then evolved as plants, most useful creation,

Serving man and animal with all its parts,

But still the heart is heavy; no Happiness!

 

Again evolved as animals, species other than man,

Served the man, the highest architects of the Artist,

No, no happiness, longing for something else!

 

Evolution goes on ..... one rolls and rolls with different bodies,

The spiritual sapling grows to a tree,

And Ultimately attains human birth

With all the inner craving , Attains all, properties, fame and material

prosperities,

But still he means "In sooth, I know not, why I am so sad!" The sadness is the

longing for the Lotus Feet!

 

Spiritual tree in him matures, He craves for merging, like a river for the sea!

 

It runs through hills and dales, very hard and hostile, Only to merge in the

sea!

 

Man's longings since time immemorial through infinite bodies,

To touch and merge in the Lotus Feet!

 

Then only he enjoys the real Bliss!

 

Never to return from that state,

The poet describes this as the mind-bee,

Sucking the nectar of the Lotus!

And lo! how they are graced with the Lotus Feet!

 

Bali was pushed to the Netherlands,

But with the touch of the Lotus Feet, he became immortal.

The same touch turned a stone to Ahalya,

The Boatman drank the nector to his hearts content,

By washing the Lotus Feet!

 

These Feet removed the poisons from Kalia, residing in Kalindi, Made Kubja a

beautiful maiden.

 

Draupadi surrendered to these Feet, Miracles occurred to save her !

Devotees flow to Shirdi by His Grace!

 

>From far off lands with pains and perrils,

Only longing is to touch the Feet!

 

Every pain comes out to be pleasure,

When get the Darshan and Sparshan,

Lo! What ecstacy one enjoys after the touch!

 

Tears roll down to wash this Feet!

 

Oh my Beloved Lord!

Grant me this state to be ever attached to thy Lotus Feet!

 

Grace me to rest there and there will be no other longings,

No other bodies, no mind, no desires,

All merged in Bliss, the total Bliss.
