You furnished everything

(3532) Alokocchal dharitriital

Shining bright is the earth's surface;
Kindly state, Who kindled this light?
In depths of mind, on strata ranging wide,
Everyone You let be dyed.

You are ancient from time immemorial;
In a hundred flows is Your pulse,
Rhythmic and thrown upward–
Novel at each blink of eye.

From utter gloom's other side,
To the world You brought lustrous insight.
A bewitched and abashed instant–
Nebula You did supply.
