A SUPPLICANT!

Beloved at Thy door,
A mere supplicant am I
Pray, how shall I
Attain Thy Lotus Feet?

No flowers have I culled
Nor any garlands threaded:
No worship have I offered,
Ever remorseful am I!

Uncontrolled have remained my senses
And totally undeserving am
How then shall I,
Attain Thy Lotus Feet?

Neither food nor drink have I,
Proffered unto Thee:
But to have a living vision of Thee,
Is my sole aspiration!

And while tears from my eyes flow,
I sing unto Thee:
Pray, how shall I,
Attain Thy Lotus Feet?

My mother art Thou,
And my father too:
Apart from thee, O Lord,
To whom shall I turn?

My intense inner yearning,
I cannot hide from Thee:
Pray, how shall I,
Attain Thy Lotus Feet?

Thine is the radiant vision,
And Divine is Thy lustre:
Fount of enlightenment art Thou,
Anjali is but ignorant and unaware!

O, how can I achieve deliverance,
From this cycle of birth and death?
Pray, how shall I,
Attain Thy Lotus Feet?
