A prayer to AMMA


A prayer to AMMA
-- Sridhar


Mother, May Thy Moon-like face
Ever dazzle in the lake of my mind.
Through and through the days of life
Spent in sorrows and innocent joys.
As I totter
Through all falls and stumbles
I know not Mother
Thou art the helping Hand.
Moments of separation
Cause grief untold.
Yet, May I never forget
You are ever my own.
Through the sparkling moments
Of destiny and its nightmares,
Mother, May I never forget
You are ever with me.
Mother, I am Thy rising Sun,
Though covered by the dark clouds of Ignorance.
Shattering the darkness with the winds of Thy grace,
May I ever shine in Thy Infinite Firmament.
