I have attained You in the smiling crimson dawn,
in the murmurings of the lotus garden,
in the morning breeze,
in the flow of the fountains,
in the lonely treelined forest paths.

I have attained You in the ups and downs of my path,
in laughter and in dance,

in rhythm and in melody,
in sweet remembrances,
in the song of my innermost heart,
in all that I hear and all that I think,
in the murmurings of the lotus garden.

I have realised You,
I have loved You, I have brought You close
in my memories and in all my eloquent dreams.

Central idea:
Along the path of progress, the movement towards the goal is not a straight and plain
road. There are so many ups and downs. O Lord, You have been with me during the ups and
also during the downs. In my pleasures You were with me in the smiles on my face, and in
my pains also You were with me, in the tears in my eyes. You have been with me in all
circumstances and in all conditions You never leave me. You are so near to me, You
maintain the closest proximity to me You are my closest friend.
