I've yearned for You in the depths of my psyche,
On a free sky, heeding not any block,
No, surely not.
Day and night I've wanted You always in company;
Please don't ever go afar.
I'm a speck of metal; You, the Philosopher's Stone;
I accept I am helpless; please convert to gold.
Kindly stay ever close mid comfort and grief;
Don't forsake and throw me off.
Yourself I cherish; You are my Lord,
Beginning-and-end-less, the Self-Born.
Having thought of Thee, I forget the penury,
Hey my Honey, the river's compassion.
Ever I stay remote, but in eyes I always hold;
Through light and shadow, I arrive and depart.

While I see duality
Monday, February 27, 2023
And so we see
Having set ablaze a garland of light-beams,
You came to the worlds three.[1]
Path's fatigue and perception's blunder,
Ridding them, to the mind You gave peace.
Any darkness, it did not remain;
No longer was there shed a lotus of pain.
Reverent mind being offered,
Pain stayed isolated within psyche.
Cool electricity, it danced with vitality;
Consciousness every person did receive.
Floating in effulgence on firmament free,
Everybody went toward Thee.

I just want You near
I don't recognize You;
Oh Who are You that entered psyche?
Pouring light into obscurity,
Telling You'll come, You disappeared.
But You cannot be forgotten;
At heartcore a sway You've given.
I am sitting on my own, unattended,
Owing to a wreath in hand I'll make You wear.
Only Your enchanting smile,
It uplifts and excites.
Just Your memory so nice,
Even still the story speaks to me.
Yourself do I prize;
For Your sake I laugh and cry.
I want Your presence day and night,
In riches or in tears.

Better than the best
You have been filling the seven spheres;[1]
You go on dancing in the lotus of psyche.
For everybody's hopes and desires in life,
You are the emblem, oh Beloved all-pervading.
In the world I don't obtain Your equivalent
Anywhere I gaze when eyes are closed or opened.
Except for You no one else is permanent;
You pour light on a face, dejected and gloomy.
On a dreadful new-moon night, Yourself I've observed;
And in the sweet moonlight, You I have discovered.
In happiness and despair, You are ever with;
You're better than welfare and prosperity.

Under cover of rain
You came on a night cloudy,
Unnoticed by everybody.
I was in a bolted dwelling,
Outside, the rain falling.
A bevy of clouds dense with water,
The moon's smile they had covered.
They had cultivated friendship
With the mind's ebony furtively.
Rain-soaked You had appeared;
My home's bolt You did unseal.
Yours You took and made me
With my veena's clattering.

You are so frustrating
Neath a full moon, dripping light,
All alone and forlorn,
Lonesome had I been on a thick night.
No second person was along;
With footfall silent You arrived.
You came close but did not sit;
Diffusing a flow of love, You took not a bit.
Unspoken were my inner secrets;
In the heart, their articulation did abide.
Darling, Your liila I don't understand at all;
Your coming and Your laughter, what is this fraud?
This time, after advent, I will hold at domicile;
On a blooming lotus, I will make You sit in mind.

Destined to be
You are only mine, to but me You just belong;
Accept it or not, this is the reality.
Over my lifetime and at my demise,
Hey Deity, You are in the depths of psyche.
When I gaze into the past I don't find a start;
In Your thought having come, paused and sat, I depart.
And when I scrutinize, probing deeply toward the end,
There remains only Your immensity.
You are the great ocean, I am a stream;
With smile and pain, I go forth and merge in Thee.
Ardency of hope, mind's intoxicating property,
Do or don't You grasp, hey Providence Supreme?
