A simple query I do dare to ask,
Do I at all meet Your expectations
O’Lord my kind Saiji
Or, do I exceed those expectations
In Your eyes, for me,
Where would I stand
Among all the band
Of innumerable devotees
Pray do answer me
O’Lord dearest Saiji;
This tired heart seeks to realize
Just how much I mean to Thee,
This tired heart seeks to satisfy
A deeper quest for Thee
And satiate the ever-longing heart;
Pray my Lord, answer me,
I do seek to excel
In Your eyes for me,
Never to be found wanting
In any call sent to me;
Pray, my kindest Lord Saiji
Shower Your blessings on me;
Love that I seek from You
So deep and really true
Lasting till eternity;
Love that I seek from You
So pure and so serene
To erase my insanity;
Such a pure and true love
From Thee my Lord Saiji
Would make my heart
To sing in ecstasy
Sweet praise after praise
Pray, my sweetest Lord Saiji
Help me to excel expectations
In my love for Thee
And devotion, Lord Saiji;
For Your image to pervade my heart
Mind, body and soul;
For Your image to entrench my heart
Never to be torn apart
In this life of misery;
For You to be by my side
And become my sole destiny,
Such a wonderful reliable guide
The supreme pilot of my life
And the captain of my ship
Is what I see in Thee;
In You I lay my trust to steer
My mind, body and soul
Through the uncharted sea
Of unknown to me, the vagaries;
Through You, I wish to explore
The realms of cosmic energy,
Through You, I seek to probe
My inner self and consciousness
And merge into Thy effulgence
Even as a minute dot
Among all the billions of dots
In this holy cosmic consciousness;
A Herculean task for me
Though a truly simple one for Thee
Only by Your kindest grace
Will the door open for me
That will allow me to enter
Your wonderful pure heart,
Dearest of dearest Saiji
Please never let me shatter
My love I feel for Thee;
Pray strengthen my resolve
To always seek Your Company;
My precious Lord Saiji
Is my plea to Thee
To truly excel all expectations
In Your divine appraisal of me.
That I may pass with flying colours
When You write the divine appraisal
Of Your simple devotee.
