Adrift



(3586) Sahase manase eso

Smiling, in the mind please come,
The mental Gopal mine.
Awake I am staying for Your sake;
Falls the stream from my eyes.

For ages having watched the path,
Many a lifetime has elapsed, vigilant.
But You did not arrive, took not a garland;
You did not understand non-stop desire.

Psyche's Jamuna remains not seated;
Upstream does it run at times, or else it ebbs.
Within Your midst it craves residence;
Yourself it seeks time after time.

When stars sing



(3585) Aj gan geye jay tarara

Today singing a song go on the stars;
Paying heed, I begin hearing.
On thought a star pours stream ambrosial;
My heart is upsurging.

From land to land floats a song,
Into all consciousness, in every heart.
Enveloping the mote of dust, molecule, and atom,
Psyche's door is opening.

Through the octave inside music-methods,
Song gives sway on heaven's vault.
Range of vision having reached, by pulse it drives amok;
Periphery's block it is ignoring.

Making the leap of faith



(3584) Niilakashe oi balaka

On azure sky yon flight of geese,
Having rose, it goes to which unknown place?
Chasing that, mind races, solitary;
Where's the nest, no sight does it obtain.

In light and darkness it's concealed–
This cozy abode, always ideation-smeared.
Under the tow of love flutter wings;
They find the right address, having chased.

After spreading wings of action and knowledge,
They go to devotion's target.
Contemplating that, all else forgotten,
He concedes, the Formless One in divine play.

Cowboy, You belong to me



(3583) Amar maneri gopal

The Gopal of my psyche,
You're in each and every molecule,
Gargantuan in plurality.

My holy endeavor of many ages,
With affection, smiling is its floral thread,
The mind's partridge,[1] become fervent,
For Your sake, it's overflowing.

I wanted no other close by;
Yours is the jewel-mine.
Lightning and thunderbolt inside,
Woke for endless time, You are there.

To play the game and be amused



(3582) Tandrajarima ja chilo amar

What had been my drowsy inertia,
Master, You withdrew.
Now on this dark night, same night of ebon.
Inaction-induced weight of ignorance,
It went far away in a second.

What had been beyond my concept,
Now that too became perception-held.
Lit by a hundred suns' effulgence,
Gloom in prison You transformed.

With such cosmic magic is Your divine play:
Each instant with delight, an ever-new game.
Thought of birth's amazing wish to make
Comes with a sportive implication.

Chiaroscuro



(3581) Tomar aloke andhare eki liila

In light and darkness Yours is such a sport;
A game amazing, You dance at times right and wrong.
In Your company, there is no vision mine;
You are deft, adept are You.

Yourself have I held dear;
I know not if You truly love me.
Still I like to get You nigh;
I am bewildered, I'm confused.

My days come and go uselessly
Amid only the routine things.
By simply contemplating Thee, peace I find;
You are sweet, honeyed are You.

Show mercy



(3580) Madhura mohan tumi citarainjan

Sweet and charming, You are the psychic dye;
Constantly You are with me.
Having lit a lamp of love under troubled breeze,
You wish to remove a darkness gloomy.

Not moment or second or trice is Thine;
Perception unequaled, oh God surpassing time.
Nonetheless, to the unit living being
You appear for holding dear.

Scripture and intellect, logic, reason, and analysis–
Above all them, You are invisible and unblemished.
The mirage of blind attachment
You can rescind.
