Amma,
Stars amusingly blinking eyes from Milky Way,
Noisy waves playing just a few meters away,
Full moon spreading its creamy rays over bay,
Cool breeze hugging softly all sea and scenery,
The longing to meet You in such a place lonely,
Burns my heart! Maa, won’t You emerge to pacify?
You being the Queen of the universe limitless,
Certainly do have errands to be done endless!
Push aside Your duties some time Maa dear,
Take me for a walk holding my hand in yours.
The longing to toddle silently by Your side,
Burns my heart! Won’t You come to abide?
Take me near a crystal clear brook in deep woods,
Or take me to moon or to stars of different moods,
Or take me light years away from earth that spins,
Or take me to Himalayan peaks where none comes,
The longing to be with You in absence of thoughts
Burns my heart! Maa, won’t You fulfill my wants?
Glancing into your gracious eyes, drinking love holy,
Silence being the language, imparting wisdom sunny,
Destroying ignorance source of all suspicion and sorrow,
Your sacred presence I am badly in need of, right now!
The longing to meet You face to face deep in my mind,
Burns my heart! Maa, Won’t You hear me carried by wind? 300508
