Always a surprise

(3082)  Mananer kone elo kar se alo

Whose is that light which came inside of thinking;
And why today, do tell please.
It let heart's core be filled, moving away the ebony;
Who is He, all-pervading?

For such a long time, He had been in hiding;
For what reason did He come in front suddenly?
Mind, by many melodies infused,
With cadence became frenzied.

Any and all things is He able to do;
The world He creates from imagination's gloom.
By way of divine game He makes smile and He makes cry;
Is that why, entreated, He appeared?

A preference for non-carbonic

(3081)  Ei surabhita candana vane

To this same jungle of fragrant sandal,
Yourself Who did send?
If having come on just your own, you remain,
Then Whom does the mind crave, oh pray tell.

Tiger-controlled and snake-copious,
The sandal forest had been fearsome.
Dread withdrawn, it became ardent with love,
By which magic of enchantment.

Never it provided fruit, the sandal tree;
Fruitless, one has returned both hungry and thirsty.
By Your advent, it furnished all needs of the journey
From the dust of lotus feet, a ruddy red.

Is this purgatory or hell?

(3080)  Hemante jhara shishir vindute

In pre-winter like a dewdrop fallen,
What and why the mind craves, I know not.
Many times I want to go far away;
But I can't evade a jot.

Oh the yellow marigold, bloomed has it;
Oh the chrysanthemum, arisen has it.
On the white jasmine, felt has been a wind!
To stay at home, mind wishes not.

Oh where art Thou, my Heartthrob?
On Your account bitterly in vain I sob.
To figure out my anguish, can You not?
Even by end of autumn, why came You not?

(3079)  Sharada prate jhara shephaliite

On Autumn morn with night jasmine fallen,
Mind of mine goes on singing:
"Where are You, oh, You are where?"
The light of a new dawn, ebon having rid,
States: "Here am I, hey you, I'm here."

Under night's darkness, what went unobserved,
Neath the morning's light, it did not stay covered.
Everywhere You exist, at core of heart a lamp You've lit;
Yourself having witnessed, the eyes look thereto only.

At a mental niche hard to reach, You had been hidden,
Veiled by staticity, no perception given.
Then Your vibration came, far off went materialism;
Yourself in a fresh role did the mind perceive.

All the ascetics; You now goad me on that way.
With rays of light illuminating, with truth unveiled,
Clinging to that path I'll go, renouncing shame.

Let there be a hundred pebbles, let all thorns remain;
Upon high-tide I will carry on, I'll not credit wane.
With only Your stream of thought, shedding just Your rays,
I will go on sailing, dressed however You'll array.

On Your path, Lord, there is not a trace of fear;
This be my only prayer: kindly grant a jot of mercy.
It will hew all deep attachment, doubt it will cleave;
With feet unwavering, doing Your deeds I'll remain.

Why remote You went and stayed?
Affection and hope of mine,
With ease You let be thrown away.

The moon in a heart gloomy,
In a desert, myrtle's honey,
But me You made cry exclusively;
What did You do by ruse of Cosmic Play?

Understanding You, onerous it is;
Thorn and flower, only both are a gift.
Without one, the other does not persist;
Through the gist of liila, what did You create?

Upon lower lip had been honey.

Yourself I've obtained nigh.

With the King of Kings in mind's midst,
I've taken and made You mine.

Mercy embodied I get to see.

Affectionate sweetness conceives in excess
An ocean of love with a life ebullient.
Via rows of waves it obliterates the worldly;
I lose myself in the form-sea.

Mingled with atom and molecule You've dwelt;
At no place vacant space have You kept.
So through Your name, both asleep and awake,
A flame I ignite, fueled by dream.

On a scent of belá and júthi jasmines You float in;
Having called the mental bee, with rapture You grin.
Both drowsiness and darkness You rid;
Sweetness did You coat on mind.

At every step of life, You exist;
Heart's crystal, resplendent You've made it.
Through cadence, song, and dance, You've been avid;
Lively is the memory that shines.

Loaded with mementos;
A word won't He speak!

Many nights of fall and spring,
Many eves and many mornings,
He had been along, rhythm excited by,
Another song won't He sing!

A time of sunshine, time sun-screened,
He's made a game of joy and grief.
By stormy wind, by lightning strike,
His sleep, broke again won't it be!

Of a mountain, only You are the glacier;
Of an ocean, You're the deep abyss.
Whatever is and that which isn't,
In Your mind everything does sway...

Without You there is no one else
To whom the inmost secrets I tell.
Overlooking now all fear and shyness,
Inclined to take shelter I came...

Like the rise of early morn You are revealed;
The crimson hue is produced by You only.
In all qualities You are excelling;

With mind's stylish grace, close by take a seat.
Fascinating flute in hand, please smile sweetly;

In Phalgun You are perfume in the mind of myrtle;
In the flaming palash arbor, the colorful luster.
You are everything I know and what I don't discern;

On silvery clouds, a buoyant flight of geese in Fall.
In the Spring, covered by fresh green leaves delicate,
The path upon, You proceed.

The smiling moon in outer space.

Through many ages it's You I have wanted,
Though that is not written inside chronicles.
Emitted in vain is a lot of eye-water
For just You, the Lover from but remote place.

In a dense forest or in the mind's recess,
Stealthily I've kept on calling Yourself.
Inside a hopeful psyche even at present,
My thought's honey I store and retain.

Stooped under the weight of honey.

A divine atmosphere have You brought;
Upon Earth's dust You've poured out love.
To a mute mouth You've given dulcet tongue;
Resounding through the lips two, smiling.

Master, You are beauty's agent,
The gemmed lamp that's never quenched.
Without sense, foolish we cry nonetheless,
Blindfolded and cooped up in dwelling.

On wings of song was I set free

Only a song's melody came floating;
Into my mind did it come.
It gave a jolt to the psyche;
I know not the reason.

Wrapped in dust had been that mind of mine;
To remote place its wings could not fly.
Coated had they been by low thought trite,
But to the far sky they do soar.

Confined at home had been my thought;
Restrictive ties broken, it sails far off.
To rhythm and melody dances a bird caged up;
He goes flying toward the Only One.

What is still to come as yet...

Amid sweetness You poured a fragrant scent;
Love's luster set aside the threat.
The sun appeared on darkness dense;
It became light's expedition.

Life came floating to the undeveloped,
A tune in the river, dulcet notes in arbor.
With a lyre's jingle is the mind's pavilion;
Sang it Your triumphant song.

Blue lotus in hand, late last night
At the grove washed with moonlight,

Deep asleep was I; upon the mirror of mind
You had sat, but I have no sight.

Explaining what is understood does not work;
As much as heard, it is not learned.
Sweetness golden, in a cage it does not endure;
All of it floats away, stream of memory alike.

This my pain, did You not fathom it?
Tale of mine, did You not hear it?
Your own atom, could You not recognize it?
Is that why You'd simply smiled?

Many lifetimes ended.

Many white jessamines fell;
Many shephalii wilted.
Crying, so much moonlight went
With lament in both Fall and Spring.

Jewel-adorned for Your sake.
Smiling You'll come, decked take seat,
Making my eyes highly pleased.

At times on stream of tears, at times on a smile,
Having made to race in dance frenzy-wild,

In a heart pain-stricken, love's ascertainment.
In pleasure a sweet memory, in woe forgetfulness,
Having brought unto Earth ambrosia aplenty.
