A Lion Waits
When I was young, I dreamt at the speed of light.
I was faster than the wind and quicker than the lightning flash.
I Saw You
I saw you early this morning
in your dark blue work shirt…
Durga, Durga, Durga
O Mother Durga,
with your powerful arms
embrace us.
Breaker of This World’s Chain
Breaker of this world’s chain, we adore Thee, whom all men love.
Spotless, taking man’s form, O Purifier, Thou art above the gunas three,
Knowledge divine, not flesh; Thou whom the cosmos wears, a diamond at its heart.
