| For me the beginning and the end is Rama: without Him all else is useless |
|
|
| My life I offer, O Ravisher of hearts |
|
|
| Chant, O tongue, Rama's name devoutly |
|
|
| All days bear not one likeness |
|
|
| He in whose heart the name of Hari dwells, he called upon another's name, or did not call. 'Tis one |
|
|
| Had I but clung in love to Rama's feet |
|
|
| O Soul, thou hast missed all the meaning of life—why hast thou lost it so? |
|
|
| O Lord, my soul has clung to Thee |
|
|
| Within your heart seek and bathe in the holy waters |
|
|
| Even as Thou wilt, so keep me Lord |
|
