With God beside me

On that special dawn with the last ray of light
When the mind of men experienced their true delight

The grace of the Lord showered deep

Jolted him of his slumber throwing away the blanket of sleep

The inexplicable sensation not yet understood

Between him and a living consciousness some one stood

With calming touch made him see around

Made his ear listen an unheard sound

His tongue moved to articulate the mantra eternal

Slowly raising the ignorance veil

That is the moment the animal graduated to become a man

His never-ending journey thus began

Step by step up the ladder

Mind fixed on one thing, nothing else does matter

From man to superman, up he will go

Never to return to the animal low

What is left behind, better be so

To the greatness of ‘virat’ he has to grow

Evilness, hate, anger, greed

Sacrificed all in exchange of a far greater need

For a ‘life divine’ much beyond this world mundane

Beyond the sufferings, misery and pain

But alas! The animal-pull at times too strong

Testing his faith, his judgement of right and wrong

At such times, only this much grant, oh Lord of mine

I shall not ask you to battle as that of thine

Just remind me of your presence and assurance

‘I may not forget you’ when the sun shines or it rains

With you in mind I shall win for sure

And shall return, just keep open your door.

I shall know my life has not gone in vain

A very small price I paid for all my gain

Allow me to wash your feet with grateful tears

I have nothing to offer…all that you gave me is already yours.
