Lord Ram And Manu Poem by sarwesh tiwari

Supreme bonded by his timely duty
created lord manu,
first man of the present time cycle
having received creators blessing thus born.

First ray received all the worldly pleasures
a kingdom to live, variety of fruits to eat
a wife as a better half and all precious stones
that greet the eyes.

Lord Manu still missed something,
A longing for whom vedas did not know much
He is everything, everywhere, everpresent
He is nothing, nowhere all it says.

Lord Manu prayed with all his heart
to know the supreme called brahman
always in love with his devotee's
a thunderous voice greeted manu atman.

'O'God why cannot i see you,
why you have no form,
still you can see, talk and feel
all with great elan'said lord manu

'O'the purest of all kind,
i am formless because you thus thought.
The existence and form that i take
are in control of my devotee's hand
which form you want me to show
imagine and thus i come.'said the God

'The form in which you live in lord shiva eyes
The form by seeing which lord delights,
In the same form you come O'father of creation
waiting since time immemorial for this liberation'
said lord manu.

At once infront the lord appeared
in shape which looked exactly as Lord ram
'what boon you need from me dear manu
say without any slightest of hesitation'

'How can i ask anything from lord
when without any query everything i got
As meeting with you was my largest desire
thus no internal burning, nor anymore fire.
still if you persist, fulfill my this desire
give me a child exactly like you
who have your exact attributes.'said lord Manu

'From where i find my exact one,
In next birth, it is i whom you own
and you will also get one similar to me
who have all my attributes, all my power.'
said lord Ram

'Oh, Your greatness can never be compared
being father of universe,
ready to make me thy father,
one last desire still being left,
without which there is no point going further.
The longing with which i suffered here,
must not bother me there,
It is nearer to you only i live
a separation and i must die'said Lord Manu

All Lord manu wish came true
in Ayodhya kingdom,
where lord Ram and lakshman took birth
for great wisdom,
Being pearl of Dasratha eyes they delighted,
but when separated, the king got the freedom.
