Prabhata Samgiita

[ATMAN]

I have arranged the lights to welcome You, Lord.
Now come and take your seat in my heart,
with slow steps, in garments ever-new.

Come in my mind with more songs
and more dance,
radiating your tender smile.

Come in my mind with rhythm and new delight,
exuding your charming vibration.

[ATMAN]

In the sky today there is a festival of colour
In my mind there is a flow of light
The air is filled with fragrance,
and everything is sweet.
With the arrival of the unknown One
my heart is filled with rhythm and song.

Giving a tender touch of life,
He removed all the darkness.
On such a day, light the candle of life
together with all.

[ATMAN]

The tender plants of today
will one day cover the arid desert with
their fruits and flowers and leaves

Watering them with the call of love,
we shall all protect them,
in rains and storm, in disease and in all calamity.
Oh tree, we are with you.

Let this gray and arid earth be covered
with fresh green, let the desert thirst be
quenched. Let all the deserts of this universe
be filled with verdant beauty.

[ATMAN]

We don't want anything more
only a little love and a little house
where we can lay our hearts,
in sun and rain and mist.

Knowingly we shall never neglect You.
Just as we maintain ourselves,
we shall maintain our house.
We want a peaceful little nest,
filled with the nectar of love.
More than his we do not want.

In storms and typhoons,
in the roaring of thunder,
You are the giver of shelter.
In love and affection You are a father to us.
In our perfect little house,
let boundless love prevail always

[ATMAN]

What was yours, Lord, I have given You.
Now, oh Lord, take him on your lap.
With tears I have given him, with pangs of loss,
my consolation is only this:
that You have accepted him

All those who came, are existing still.
In infinity all are still alive.
But still, we live in fear and loss;
and forgetting You
we worry and weep.
Oh Lord, forgetting You
we worry and weep.

[ATMAN]

On my birthday, in the current of the new, let new light dawn upon us and, in the rhythms of the Lord of rhythm, fill my life with new ideas.

Whatever you will give, I will accept with outstretched palms. Whatever you will say, I will hold in my innermost heart. Your life I will offer back to you. With your name, let me be intoxicated.

The tender new leaves are now full-grown. Their reddishness has now become green. I want to dedicate myself to thee serving of all, with renewed vigour and fresh strength.

I shall no longer sing the songs of despair. I shall no longer think of my life as a burden. With countless rhythms, with sweetest bliss, let me carry your message on let new light
dawn upon me.

[ATMAN]

Our darling baby is like a doll of butter,
wiggling his hands and feet, laughing
with glee and joy. His/her fingers are like
blossoms of campaka flower.
The luster of the celestial world still glows in his/her eyes.

Plucking tender flowers from the forest,
the baby has arrived in a new land.

I will nurture the baby well, I will take
on my lap with love.

[ATMAN]

When two people are being united Lord,
give them your blessings.
Amidst their burning sorrows,
amidst their garlands of joy,
in their pains and pleasures,
be with them always.

Human society is indivisible.
Neglecting not a single family,
let us all together sing and dance.
Oh Lord, accept all as your own

With the harmonies of the earth and
sweet messages of love,
fill their lives with colour.

[ATMAN]

You have come into this earth to see me, by melting in my pain.

Your heart is overflowing with sweetness, Your smile is shining like pearls, Your eyes are anointed collyrium.

You refused to remain in heaven, You have descended in divine sport.
In the tender blossom of my mind, in your mysterious play, You drowned my intellect.

Be always with me, at all times and even when I am beyond the scope of time, in the lotus of my mind, in Your all-blissful form.

[ATMAN]

In the midst of complete calmness,
who is that one who has come
and broken my sound sleep?

With the blowing of the wind
that extinguished the lamp,
who has lit the light of knowledge
and broken my sound sleep?

In the decorated garden in a small hut,
one who comes and goes away far away.
The light is the sign of their target on their path.
Who has broken my sound sleep?
