When shall I attain that state?
When shall I attain that state?
When by the mercy of Raghunath the Merciful I shall grasp the nature of the Sants within me.
Whatever be my fortune, therewith shall I be content: to no one will I make complaint.
To the good of others will I devote my thoughts and deeds and keep faithful to my promise and my principles.
Harsh words intolerable to mine own ears—I shall not burn in the wrath that prompts them.
Equable and calm and balanced, I will not see in other's actions good or ill.
Casting aside the griefs that rise from taking thought, my mind will I fix unmoved alike in joy or sorrow.
O Tulsi Das, in this path will I walk and lay hold on a devotion that naught can shake.
