bhakti_lata Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 A devotional outpouring that i have composed in Hindi. For non-hindi speaking devotees, i have included an english translation. bhool gayii jo rishtaa tujh se, uskii yaad dilaa de, Bhagavan! bhaTak rahii sansaar meiN kab se, terii raah dikha de, Bhagavan! (Remind me oh Lord! of the relationship with You that i have forgotten about. Show me oh Lord! way to Your abode as I am lost in this material world!) maiN moorakh is deh ko kab se, apnaa satya samajhtii hooN satya - asatya kaa bhed bataa kar, us kaa bhaas karaa de Bhagavan! (I am so foolish that I identify my body and everyting associated with it to be my truth! Help me oh Lord! to appreciate the absolute truth by showing me the difference between the truth and false!) Guru kehtay haiN sukhii wohii, jo tujhko samjhay tujhko jaanay mujhko teraa gyaan karaa kar, mere bhaag jagaa de Bhagavan! (Shri Guru says that one becomes happy only by knowing and understanding You. Awaken my destiny oh Lord! by helping me understand You!) baahar dukh ke kaalay baadal, antar meiN agyaan kaa kaajal miT jaaye har aik kaalikh, aisii jyot jalaa de Bhagavan! (Outside are the dark clouds of material suffering and within is dark as kohl due to ignorance, Please light such a lamp, oh Lord! that wipes out all the darkness within and without!) ghor agyaan ke jwar ke kaaran, tere naam kaa swaad na jaanoN naam ras kaa aaswaad le sakooN, meraa taap miTaa de Bhagavan! (Due to fever of deep ignorance, i am unable to taste Your Holy name Treat me of my malady, oh Lord! so I am able to relish the amborisa of Your holy name!) Govoinda! Hari! Hari!
