Permanently perfect

(3535) Kusum suvase sudhasar

With a floral fragrance is nectar's essence,
A flood tide full of the moon golden.
Upon moonlit night with songs that don't sleep,
A golden necklace You've constructed.

Coming and going for the sake of living beings,
Hey the Ever-Blazing One, You're above any country.
You had been and You are, forever You will be;
Radiant Majesty, You are unlimited.

There is neither rise nor fall of the sun;
It won't be diminished underneath time's clutch.
By thunderbolt and lightning it is not crushed;
That same One are You, ever the Quintessence.

Wanting You only

(3534) Komale kathore tumi prabhu

Tender and severe are You, Master;
From afar, Yourself I did not conceive.
Please don't scorn me ever;
Tell me only to proceed.

Last night, what had been a bud,
Today it has blossomed at dawn.
What had been to thinking integral,
As thread of love has remained strung.
Upon Your contemplation, it is swooning.

With a brisk bloodstream
Gushes the heart lively.
It races in hope of honey;
My mental bumblebee longs for Thee.

You rid the dark

(3533) Aloker ei jharnadharay, ke tumi ele

With this same fount of effulgence,
Who are You that came?
Eyes opened, at me gaze.
Like the new-moon night, I'd been aslumber,
Graciously, into my vicinity You came.

No outer or inner side is Yours;
Manifest, You're a string of magnolia.
Rising cloud-born is the light's non-presence;
By Your touch, the flaw You washed away.

The cosmic mind's necklace gem-studded,
You are beyond measure, bottomless, unlimited.
Tranquil and affectionate nectar's essence;
Who would know if You did not proclaim!

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.

Due to an age-old blessing

(3531) Kanu mor jadi nahi elo gokule

If to Gokul my Kanu^[1] did not come,
If to Gokul He did not come,
Raiment is for Whose sake, toward Whom social shame,
The garland threaded with malatii blossom.

On Him I think day and night, with His thought mingling float I;
In the kohl of eyes, always I see His smile;
Only His love sways at heart-core.

In that same sportive bliss of thinking mind-pleasing,
The ever-happy Deity is my life's Dearest Darling.
Having burst linguistic binding, my thought process unruly
Races absent limitation upon just His attraction.

Mercy mild

(3530) Ei tamasacchanna dharay

To this same gloomy earth,
Bringing light, please come; mingle with every heart.
Earnest and anxious, all watch Your path of advent;
At core please be seated, smiling sweet and soft.

This dark earth, on it have passed many ages;
By many fearsome scowls it has been wounded.
Time and again in warfare bloody it has contended;
Now please radiate love and affection.

No more, Lord, Sport You've done quite enough;
With sweetness of Liila, why are You still so far off?
By lightning have You hidden sandalwood for what reason,
When You cherish everyone.

A fool's errand

(3529) Maner kone samgopane

In a corner of the mind, secretly,
Oh Who are You, seated unaccompanied?
Amid heartcore swing You're giving.
Naught You wanted, naught You spoke;
Smiling, You strew pearly wreaths.

Your companion, might there be nobody,
Though having sought him alone everywhere?
This whole universe is immensely deep;
In a game are You unwitting?^[1]

You don't lack for anything;
For every entity You are Devotion's Peak.
With same influence on molecule and Supreme Being,
You compose a cosmic play in a hundred streams.
