Guest guest Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Oh Lord! I am Your child. Whether I am good or bad, however I am, I am only Your child. Leaving You, where else can I go? Who will talk to me? Who will listen to me? This world is like a vast forest. Seeking help from the world, is like crying helplessly in the forest. Besides You, there is no one else that will listen. Oh Great King (Maharaj) ! Who can I tell? Who will feel any compassion towards me? If I had good qualities, then may be someone may listen to me. But who will listen to a sinner? Who will listen to one with bad qualities? Oh Lord! my Govind, my Gopal ! it is only You, that takes care of the cows and provides pastures (charaa). I am just like the bull, totally untamed ! Only you can fill that role. Who else is there that has the courage to accept me? Who has such strength ? What happiness or gratification can I provide to another? By taking me in also what will they do? By giving me food, shelter, clothes, spending money, what will they gain from me? Who will take care of such a worthless one ? It is only due to your compassion, that somehow I get by, otherwise who care? Oh Lord, on having few skills, I become arrogant. The talent is so very little, but I begin to believe that I am great, I am capable, I am a special, I am an orator, I am clever, I am smart, I am intelligent, I am a renunciate (tyaagi), I am unattached. Oh Lord ! What pride I have ! I have heard that you dislike the arrogant ones and you love those filled with humility. Since you do not like pride, than why don't you remove it from me? Why don't you take it away? A dirty child, climbs into his mother's lap, is bound to be cleansed by her. Who else would do that? Would the mother take him in only if he was clean ? Lord, if you do not like my impurities, then why don't you cleanse me off these impurities. You only will have to take that task upon yourself, Maharaj. Oh Lord (He Naath), You are everything to me. Besides you, who else is there? Who will give someone like me a hug? Have mercy on me, as I am Yours. Only do this out of Your compassion, my Lord.
