Fireflies

(85)  Dinguli cale jay

Days are passing by,
Etching memories on the mirror of the mind.

I have forgot the day when I arrived;
Why I'd come, that too I haven't realized.
A pleasant breeze is blowing;
Streaming is a bundle of light beams.

In just one corner of Your mind,
My psyche resides.
In just one granule of Your heart,
I exist forever.
Many moonbeams stay adrift,
But they fade inside Your current.

Our savior has arrived

(84)  Sumukhe asiya danraiya chile

Standing in front You had come;
With You were a hundred suns.
I was off to one side,
In my hand, a tiny earthen light.

Wave after wave crashes down
Upon the billowy ocean...
War cry stirring, the star does rise
From frothy stream of life.

About are countless atoms racing
To a music unruly...
From near to far and far to near,
In thunder and in lightning.

Meeting of minds

(83)  Cira nutaner ahvane

Upon summons by the Ever-New,
My penchant is to race in dance
Toward far-away azure.
Today, just marching on's my song;
My life is but His smiling invitation.

Looking behind and waiting 'round in vain...
The One Who's drawing me, that's what I crave.

My will inside His will, my wish inside His wish...
Into one melody they do mingle and merge.

And suddenly

(82)  Tumi esecho prane esecho

You have arrived, in my life arrived...
Making the world bright, You have come into my life.

The sound of Your ankle bells, penetrating heart's core,
That made me forget all of my troubles.

You are with me, stay with me;
In blissful tremors,^[1] please abide with me.
Your sweet smile, the heart overwhelming,
It did snatch my everything.

Nothing and no one is lost

(81)  Svapner ghore din cale jay

The day goes by in dreamlike trance;
The rule is that it must elapse.
The day goes by, never coming back;
The rule is it's unseen again.

Spoken words and suffered pains,
In Great Beyond, they fade away;
Onward flow the days.

That which began in times gone by,
Even its archaic story,
On the dreamy strings of spirit's lyre,
Has abided, twined in melody.
Those who are lost to us
Exist in Your sublime expression.

Dreamy

(80)  Svapane esecho anandaghana tumi

Bliss so deep, You’ve appeared in dream;
A joy You are to everybody.

With the vast and lovely sky, magnanimous You mingle;
You are rhythm transcendent, incomparably beautiful.

In Your eyes is affection, at Your feet salvation;
Beyond conceit, You are a cascade of nectar.

Knowingly or not, I'm in love with just one Person;
That love mine, it knows no restriction.

Sensational

(79)  Svapanera chonya lege

By the touch of Your dream,
My life has got a fresh vitality.
With hope my song resounds,
With lyrics the notes vibrate now...
My love has passed beyond all bounds.

Dabbed with the magic of Your dream,
Heart's core was filled with honey.
In my tune the beat's exuberant,
In my bloom the scent, ecstatic...
One gone astray discovered the polestar.

Glazed with the sweetness of Your dream,
The world's received a speed-stream.
On every side the light is bright;
All I see, it just feels right.
Particles and atoms have been energized;
And predilections, they've been satisfied...
The Earth became full of delight.
