You are great,
I am meagre.
I keep ever dancing around You.

You are a wave,
I am the dust of the path,
I ever long for Your shelter.

From time immemorial,
between You and me,
the mutual absorption of love
between the microcosm and the macrocosm has existed.

You may stay without me,
but I cannot survive without You.
I cannot think of anything other than You.

You are the polestar
unto which all aspire to move.
Grant me love and devotion,
so that I may continue singing of Your glory.

-------------------------------------------

You are so great and I am so small.
I am always moving towards You.
You are the ocean
whereas I am but a small particle of dust.
I surrender myself unto Your lotus feet.
You are my shelter.

Since the very beginning of this universe
our relationship has been one of love.
You may stand without me,
but I can't stand without You.

I can't think of anyone else except You.
You are my polestar.
You are my meditation (sadhana).
Please grant me devotion and love
so I may always sing Your glory.
