THIS FAR HAVE I TRAVELLED
TO BE IN GODS' LAND,
IN THE COUNTRY OF MY FOREFATHERS,
VIBES OF SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT
STRIKE ME LIKE A LIGHT
DEEP WITHIN MY HEART LAUGHS.
SEATED IN THE BANK OF GANGA
HEARING THE CHIMES OF MYSTICAL BELLS
TEARS OF JOY, OF CONTENTMENT
FLOW DOWN THE CHEEKS LIKE STREAM,
A FEELING FROM WITHIN EMANATES
WHICH MY WORDS LACK TO DESCRIBE.
AS THE EVENING COMES BY
THE MYSTICS THE SAINTS THE UNPURTURBED SOULS
SING SONGS OF GLORY TO THE RIVER OF OLD
IN SUCH AMAZEMENT AM I LOST
I FORGET MY BODY MY OUTWARD SENSES
SUCH COMPOSED FEELING SUCH CALMNESS
COMES OVER ME
THE MATERIAL WORLD IS LOST TO ME,
I CRAVE AND LONG ONLY FOR GOD
GOD THAT RESIDES WITHIN US ALL.
AS I WALK BACK TO THE ASHRAM
IN A TRANCE I MOVE AHEAD
SEEING BEFORE ME THE LOVELY END
THE END THAT WILL COME ONE DAY
LEAVING BEHIND THE BODY
THE SOUL WILL GAIN SUPREMACY
IN SILENT CONTEMPLATION
I SIT AND AM LOST TO THE WORLD
TO GAIN AN INSIGHT INTO THE UNIVERSE THAT I HOLD.
