Your divine conundrum



(3315) Aguner parash diye

By means of a touch of fire,
You did let snow-coldness be set aside.
Imposing lifeless matter upon state of mind,
A rain-soaked Game You devised.

Why this same divine play, not a thing I fathom;
Yet I forget not that nothing is free from sport.
Seeking in the liila-filled is doable endeavor;
This thought You did waken in mind.

Cosmic game exists, hence the living survive;
Amid only liila is all desire-and-find.
In a sportive universe through liila's surmise,
On liila a love-stream You made ride.

Don't amplify the dark side



(3314) Ankhite badal bhijeche kajal

Rain from eyes has soaked the collyrium;
Oh fair-eyed maiden, kindly state the reason.
The cheek's mole, having gained a dyed resemblance,
Has forgot the whole cosmic affliction.

Black color enveloping, light has got extinguished;
In the darkness good and bad have been vanquished.
But still more psychic sweetness you lavish;
Is it that you don't wish this gloom be kept afar?

Your dark braid is fastened with thread ebon,
Black kohl-jar on dark chignon.
Today you merely sing just His narration;
Except Him please think of nothing more.

The light You did bring



(3313) Nandana shubha prabhate

Today on a happy and auspicious morning,
With light-rays along, Lord, You'd appeared.
Upon this earth the date inscribed did nobody.
Darkness having set aside, that same light,
It raced off, dancing on the thought-stream.

From stellar sky, with no end or beginning,
In all directions went a spark of lightning.
Inaction at an end through vital light-beams,
By that means vociferous became unit beings.

Since then gone away has time aplenty;
Shed have been many stars and nebulae.
Come has a plethora of cadence motley,
With new love and fondness smeared.

My goal in life



(3312) Man tomakei kache pete cay

Mind yearns to get nearby only Thee,
Lying abed in dream or sleep, and awake...
To the time, good or bad, it pays no heed.

At crimson morning on first rise of daybreak,
In floral lines, in tattler strains,
I search, struck by aerolites and stormy rain,
Through fog a dismal ebony.

You listen to my tale, You fathom my distress,
Unit-psyche's copious anxiousness:
A history writ in tears, kohl-drenched,
Hidden by a smiling beauty.

Now I notice that lost I've gotten;
Where has gone excised all fear and shyness?
Coating with sweetness, You have come, shameless,
Black showers illuminating.

(3311) Tomar ganer malay

Upon Your song's garland,
I am just a single blossom.
With Your tune, raag, and beat,

In Your presence I don't want a thing;
In Your rocking cradle is everything.
Life's pollen is a smiling fondness,
A love crimson.

Please keep me very near;
At heart this mercy I entreat.
Under stormy winds and sleet,
Please give a peerless tremor.

Igniting a lamp, You had come;
You gave a touch of love.
I didn't know You, I understood not Thee;
With a gentle breeze upon sky-blue color,
That love-stream goes on flowing.

You've arrived with a fest of light;
At mental depths, neath open tent You've smiled.
Thoughts abstract You've infused mid empty mind;
That thing to whom, who makes clear?

In the gloomy darkness the frightened persons,
Fearless You made and drew them all along.
You declared: "I'm in existential celebration,
Brightly painted on this mundane sphere."

(3309) Asoniko loker bhire

Amid a worldly throng You did not arrive;
Came You on an avenue of mind.

You arrived through tears from eyes;
Wiping of eyes You did provide.

Non-stop is a living being's coming and going;
Hence they think it's same for Thee.
This very feeling, a sense of Your visiting,
Living beings get, themselves being mobile.

By Your radiant splendor, of me
All the load of weariness You are removing.
You are mine, oh Dearest Darling;
If a kindness occurred, I will realize.

By Your love a flower blossoms in the forest;
Whereto will I go, Yourself abandoned?
At Your feet my bowing You accept;
Ever will I expect benison.

Without stalk a lotus does not exist;
That flower is its load, even being tarnished.
With Your love my world is filled;

Even though infinite, You keep touching confines.
Brightly smiling, lovingly, honey You apply;

A spotless mind you wrap in scent.

Love makes all the difference



(3306) Bhalabasa elo jiivane, kena ke jane

Love came into my life;
Who knows why, who knows why?
Absorbed in meditation sunk have I;
I've been trussed by earnest desire.

In a wink, the thick-cinched ice left melting;
Golden and aglow, thrilling It rose blossoming.
In psyche a sense of kinship came for everybody...
All things Thine... cadence and song thereby.

The clouds abrim on firmament floated off instantly;
With moonlight the mind-sky glistened brightly.
What I imagined not, that came about, getting embodied
By lure of Your sweet-exquisite style.

With atom and molecule, Yours is such a liila;
Amid all existence, You are the one aggregate.
In slumber and deep drowsiness, my time has passed;
Having wakened me, whereto do You disappear?

All my coming and going is at Your mercy.
Day and night, why they come, why oh why do they leave;
And why do I arrive, in this world, You alone perceive.

On the evening sky a light is scintillating.

Accompanied by moonlight and a churned rapture.

On planets and meteors, in the stars of nebula,

You went away to some unknown sphere.
Hey Shiva propitious, hey Merciful One,[1]
Having conferred wisdom, the path You revealed.

For understanding You, none has the intellect;
For gauging You there is not the prowess.
Thus at Your feet I beseech kindness,
Hey the One pleased easily, always by everybody.

Hey Fearsome Destroyer, the bondage-eradicator;
For misdeeds amassed, a sacrificial fire's combustion.
Ever well-bedecked with trident and with clarion,
Like a silver mountain, sparkling.

In gloomy darkness asleep had I been;
Piercing the ignorance You appeared.
I'd been stricken with a worldly hunger;
The taste of ambrosia You did bring.

Many days have passed, left have nights aplenty
To my darkness there has been no ending.
With thunderous proclamation, smiling and heartening,
You wakened a lukewarm, passionate feeling.

I flash a glance, my gloom's intensity has gone;
In life has arrived a brightly colored dawn.

You made constancy sway; remains nobody.

I have come to this Earth, Your work to attend,
To bind You with affection's thread.
Hey the Peerless One, the most near and dear,
Why don't You understand, having grasped my secret psyche?

In gap after gap of clouds I have sought.

Dearest, multifarious is Your play divine,
Hey, the presiding deity at my shrine.
You are the innermost of my inner mind,
Remaining afar, this fact I have fathomed.

When I go on seeing the heavenly sweetness.

With my every momentary horripilation.

At Vrndavan there is no forest;
High-rise buildings do the mind encircle.
No more do I find that sweetness
Under the kadam tree,
Like You had seen.

Today the Jamuna is shriveled;
There is not the banyan's shelter
There is not tamal's dark magic.
In lap of clouds ebony,
Did the moon-like Krsna hide,
Out of sight, behind a time-screen?

In joy You are, in woe You are, mine forever;
Everybody's goal, even though invisible.
You're the aggregate of meditation, wisdom, and reverence–
In every pore of existence, I have perceived.

Many facts of past and much deceit.
None knows whereto they've gone missing;
Maybe etched are they on a realm heavenly.

They come and go, throwing me lonely aside.
And so Yourself I yearn to receive nigh,

With sweet scent in the forest of psyche.

Not knowing the reason, to logic not paying heed.
By any other's reasoning I did not proceed;

In reality, in a sleep-free state, though You don't come,
Please come in a dream-vision.

In thought of You alone, many nights become dawn.
Look once with eyes of kindness in my direction,

In song a line of parrots is frenzied by melody?

Come dance with Me



(3269)  Diip jvele jai khushiite bharai

A lamp I go on lighting, with joy I make it please;
I belong to you all, of you all am I.
Nobody is alien, Mine is everybody
From time out of mind.

Eyes drenched with tears I don't want to see;
Love impassioned ever I go on observing.
None of you stay afar, Myself do not misconstrue;
This Cosmic Game is of delight.

Dyed with affection in the tune of lyrics have I dwelt;
Heart replete, I've kept floating on floral pollen.
Girded by song, with love's wreath do I swing
At the coastline of life.

No complaint



(3268)  Alokeri rathe esechile

On the splendid chariot You had arrived,
Scattering a stream of light.
It mattered not there was no invite;
Unasked sweetness You applied.

All the accumulated weariness,
It moved far aside in a moment.
In a whirlpool of grime
Love awakened.
Familiar or unfamiliar mind does not heed;
Having spread wings of kinship it glides.

Filled with tears is my history;
In a minute, 'twas entwined with ecstasy
At every pore were love's tidings;
Hearing and memory You fully satisfied.

In my life and in my mind



(3267)  Gan geye geye madhurii charaye

Ever singing, sweetness strewing,
Who are You Who came into the grove of my psyche?
With eyes never did I see;
But by the light of early morning, bad with good
You combined through keynote and melody.

Friend or foe, outer or inner,
Hatred and disregard are not Yours.
In a universal home, taking everybody,
You dance with vibration sweetly smiling.

Unseen Supreme Being, Yours is such a sport;
You give ever-novel sensory perception.
From the manifest state to transcendence, newly fashioned;
Upon cogitation You go on floating.
