Come a bit closer
and smile a little.

I know You can remove
the darkness of my penance.

Come to me like a strip of moon.
I know this darkness is not forever.
Whatsoever mental agonies appear,
they come and go hundreds of times.

This pitch black ocean of darkness
will leave with its head low in defeat.
It is the divine effulgence that You love.

I will not accept defeat at any cost.
I will I remain holding on
to Your lotus feet only.

Whatever people may say,
whatever may happen,
I shall remain pure and smiling.
You are my beginning and my end.
