When Your ankle bells ring in my ears



(3576) Tomari priya nam tumii parinam

Only Your cherished name: You alone, the final state;
Whatever hope is with You only.
Your loveliness floats on a firmament gorgeous;
By just Your prescript is going and coming.

About Your work and cause I know naught;
Through G-O-D,[1] unto You I pay homage.
Happiness heavenly, always a penchant sweet,
By Your profound wisdom You rid all despondency.

Mind dances round and round at ankle-bells sonorous,
With music mode and melody, upon horizon's far shore.
Resonant in the three worlds[2] with God's vibration,
By such means dumbfounded is all garrulous speech.

Just for a few days



(3575) Dudiner bhalabasa dharay asa

A couple days' love come unto the world,
It is for whose sake!
You've gone on playing this hardhearted sport
Age after age.

In memory is not what I keep doing;
Hope even after hope I go on holding.
What I imagine and what I consider not,
In dilemma, time slips away.

Sport's Avatar is not without playful activity;
And even daily dwelling, I crave just His mercy.
What I understand and what I apprehend not,
While trying to fathom, eyes emanate.

My Deity



(3574) Manete sajabo mane eso mor

In the mind I'll adorn, into my mind please come;
Oh hey Demon Slayer, One Who is Charming.[1]
What use in decorating with the mind's trinkets;
Hey, I have stored the Supreme Being Dallying!

Jewel of my mind, You go on dancing unseen;
I conceive only You as everybody's chief,
Hey the One, blind attachment always ridding.

I don't recognize You, Yourself I know not;
And yet, absent You, another I heed not,
Sin's Obliteration, Kamsa's Enemy.

Not just a companion



(3573) Tumi amake bhule gecho

You have forgotten me.
Amid the many, with the work of many people,
You're immersed perpetually.

I perform Your meditation and devotions;
Always I beseech only Your compassion.
In tears I say: Please don't remain afar;
Why have You retained me unaccompanied?

Absent You I have no one else;
I make known what is heart's uneasiness.
It's only I'm directionless, in a misty prison cell,
While in shadow You have gone on dancing.

Identity



(3572) Maneri raja mor mane lukaye acho

King of my mind, in my mind You are concealed;
In the mind Yourself I'll view.
You had been in ancient days, You've stayed endlessly;
Nonetheless, unto love the world moves.

You are in my eyes, within my pupil's blackness;
Clothed You have remained in a motley dress.
Constantly flash those hues.

Oh please come closer yet,
In the midst of my I-ness;
Let ego be lost in You.

Oh what bliss!



(3571) Aloker ei jharnadharay, tumi ele priya mor prane

With this same cascade of light,
In my life, Dear, You appeared...
With cadence aplenty, with a bliss fascinating,
With tune-mode and music, with keynotes and melody.

In my mind there is no scarcity;
It's made overflowing by only Your charity.
Getting lost, my new-moon night;
Who knows whereto it went hiding!

To look toward the past I don't crave
By Your inspiration, forward I gaze.
At mind's grove a peacock-cry, getting Your sight,
Was brimming with emotion, accordingly.

What I need



(3570) Jiivane marane tomakei ami jani

In life and in death, it's You alone I perceive;
In light and in darkness, I just know You only.

Beyond form, Darling, to form's ocean You have come;
Beyond thought, Soulful One, myself You have loved.
I'm a bubble, You're the sea, Yourself do I revere.

I've arrived at Your wish, I've floated on that wave-garland;
By Your dispatch I've laughed, in Your moonlight I've danced.
My coming, going, staying, by Your dream are overwhelmed;
Circling that dream, my every crimson net I weave.
