Lal Parameswar

I am safe and secure here,
In my mother's loving womb,
I know she loves me so much,
But still I hurt her sometimes.
...

The sun is high and hot in sky,
With his reckless rays on earth,
The ravishing storm huddles around,
But you are always soft and sound.
...

'I wished to be that garland for you,
Or even the flower of that group,
Or even the petal of that flower,
Or even the fragrance of that petal,
...

The time has come to say good bye,
To this beautiful world for a time,
I was afraid all these times,
But my soul whispered in my ears,
...

Hide me from the fires,
The fires of fear and deepest despair,
The daggers of desire killed our light,
Pouring darkness in thunder and lightning,
...

Songs of hope, turn me deaf,
Let me not hear the lies destined,
Colours of life, turn me blind,
Let me not see this world so dark,
...

The darkness of light stabs my soul,
The breath becomes fire and melts my heart,
Lost is love and lost is my path,
This journey unending and so scary,
...

Why you follow me always,
And everywhere I go?
You don't make any sense,
Nor do you think!
...

Prostrations and salutations at thy feet,
My Lord, my Master, my everything,
Let thy blessings be showered on me,
And on all the fellowmen around the world.
...

Oh! my dear little rose, let me ask you,
Why you are born in the middle of thorns?
It is just to remind you that,
There is no joy without sorrows!
...
