For what reason do you rage, O mind?
Why, have you no fear of God?
Have you forgotten the teachings of the Master?
Where are you heading?
Pray forgive me Lord,
I have been sinning even before I was born.
O kind and forgiving Guru,
When will my sins vanish?

The mountain of separation
is higher than everest.
Don't even think of climbing it
without the advice of one who's returned.
This is the mountain
where every step is a great height,
where every move is against the wind.
But when you reach the peak,
you can touch the universe
and become it.

If anyone wishes to see a loser lover,
look at me.
I don't have love enough
to please my Beloved.
So where is my fault
if I don't have the capacity?
You made me like this-
but I have tried hard.
So what else can I do?

Stop making me walk in circles, Lord!
Show me the Way;
Please hold my hand
and walk me to You.

Surely and purely it is
but the Holy Name of Lord
that is the Saving Grace of all-
beyond the talk of purity,
perfection, highness and holiness.
The mere touch of which
fills a soul with boundless joy.
I cannot describe an iota of the glory of
The Holy Spirit of the Lord.
Unparalleled Supreme Entity,
the only Truth. The Word.
The Spiritual Master.
Sat Naam
Sat Naam
Sat Naam.

O Gurudev, I the lowly fool,
the one without virtues,
the one who can't follow the Way,
the unworthy one,
ask
for this
Supreme Priceless entity.
I am a hundred times willing to sell you
my mind, body and soul.
Please, beloved Lord,
embrace this poor soul in Your mercy.

In sitting back
and simply watching
like a child
is the great secret of liberation-
O my mind.
Think about this,
and act on this
every day
every moment.
And you shall
come to know the One
who sees you from a million eyes
and none.

I am sacrifice a hundred times to the Master
with whose grace I have come to understand this.

An easy teaching
hard to follow.
We do what You make us do.
It is only with Your grace
O Beloved Master-
that I may realise Your glory.
Look upon this poor soul,
which is naught without Your grace-
I humbly pray for Your mercy-
my Saviour.

Come Master, come
Give food to this hungry dog.
My way of begging is not perfect-
just like a dog-
he only knows how to bark.
But being the Inner Knower of Hearts
You know my yearning.
O Lord, I stand somewhere
where only you can find me.
O Lord, I stand barking,
hungry for Your Name.
Come Master, come
and give me the divine food.
To each Word of your Speech
I humbly offer my obeisances
O Beloved Guru.
To each of Your forms I humbly offer obeisances
O Beautiful One.
O Master of Creation,
please instruct me-
what may I do to obtain You.
O Lord, forgive me,
the most idiotic one-
I do everything wrong.
But I have heard
that your one look can save me.
This poor one
asks for one success in life-
the ability to please You
and obtain Your feet.
