Musings of a devotee

Like a lion in it's cave

Lord Rama, Royal, sits in my heart!

Like the mighty ocean and a wave

There is nothing that can set us apart

I am a wave that arose on Him

I am a wave that exists on Him

I am a wave that moves on Him

I am a wave that dies on Him

Ram is the one who made me arose

Ram is the one who provides the force

Ram is the one who'll take me back

Ram is the one who knows the knack

Ram is the power that conquers all

Ram is the power that subdues none

The joy of my heart is multi fold

When unto my ears, his glory is told

I always think of His Lotus Feet

Surrender to which is no defeat

I preciously keep them on my lap

I caress them, He takes a nap

As he stands up after the rest

I hug his legs, close to my chest

Touch His Feet with my lucky head

In salutations to the Supreme Head

Lord Rama is my innermost core

Driving me in every chore

Won't I be a mat on His floor?

Or a servant who can stand by His door?

With my shirt, I'll wipe His Footwear clean

Thinking, 'If only, in it's place, I had been?!'

Bearing His Weight, all on me

Hugging His Feet, wherever He be

I surrendered to Him for His Dignity

Became His slave for His Sanctity

I am happy to be His eternal slave

Denied for which, I would prefer the grave

Chanting His name, I'll spend my life

Refraining myself from material strife

Unlearning all the non-sense I learned

Exhausting all the karma I earned

I'll empty myself chanting His name

Preferring zero-value in the number game

All I want is the inner space

And a heart that can contain Divine Grace!
