Prabhata Samgiita

[ATMAN]

Wherever I go, I see only Him.
Glittering both inside and out.
In the sky and in the air He floats.
Shining in His pure resplendence.
Smiling in all the flowers.

Whith the magic of His sweetness,
in the heart He sings in unspoken words.
With sweet vibrations
He comes in the cadence of dance.

How can I forget Him?
He who stirs the seven realms
and makes them swing and dance?
If I hide myself in the sky-blue garment,
wherever I go He is already there surrounding all.

He smiles in the iris of the eye.
He smiles in the pupil of the eye.
The more I try to forget Him,
the more I remember, the more I remember.

How difficult to live without Him
Wherever I look I see only His form.
He is inside me, glittering and laughing.

[ATMAN]

You came in the silent midnight
to enlighten the sky of my heart.
Though I have no merit, still you came
and taught me how to love,
to love all living creatures.

The more I feel I will forget you,
the more I am caught in your embrace.
I cannot forget your dangerous flute.

The flute that overflows the banks of my heart,
that fills me with laughter and removes all my tears.
Your dangerous smile,
your bewitching smile,
your bewitching flute.

In all seasons, on all days,
you are mingled in my existence,
in every atom and cell of my life,
my body in your body,
my atoms in your atoms,
you are merged in my mind,
you are merged in my entire mind.
You came in the silent midnight
to fill my all with your effulgence.

[ATMAN]

In the sky and ocean, in forests and fields,
in creepers and leaves, He remains concealed.
He fills the night jasmine with fragrance
in the autumn midnight.

How can we forget the One,
whose beauty is the universal beauty.
We cannot forget, we cannot forget.

How can we remain away from Him
whose light is the universal light?
We cannot, we cannot,
we can never keep Him away.

If ever my fragrance blooms like a flower
on the branch of a beautiful forest tree,
He surrounds me like a tender red leaf,
encircling me with His crimson radiance.
I want His embrace forever,
I never want to go far away.

In the sky and ocean, in forest and fields,
in creepers and leaves, He remains concealed.
All flowers, from dawn to midnight,
are filled with His blissful fragrance.

[ATMAN]

Come close, still closer, come into my mind.
Come in ever-new forms,
resonating my heart and vibrating my life.

From formlessness into form, You have come.
Oh King of the Formless!
Today all my yearnings have been fulfilled,
my quest has been fulfilled.

Today all want You from the depth of their hearts,
they want You with them in everything they do.
If they do not have You,
they do not have anything at all.

[ATMAN]

He has spread a beautiful effulgence.
He has coloured the entire universe
and poured light into life.

He told that no one belongs to others.
He wants to take all along with him.
I only love and smile and go on dancing
towards Infinity.

He has illuminated all minds.
He realized the pain and agony of all
and consoled everyone.
He crossed the ocean of effulgence
and enchanted all minds.

[ATMAN]

On that silent night with You,
many untold dialogues had been left pending.

Why do thousands of thorns reside in floral gardens?
Why does the stream follow a rugged path?
Why does the lotus blooms in dirty, stinking water?

Why does a dark path appear on this joyful earth?
On this creation,
anointed with colourful dreams
of love and affection
- why does the shadow of destruction dance?

Why do ego and pride forcefully
need to learn to surrender unto Your feet?

[ATMAN]

Everything is cretaed by Your love.
Everything is made by Your song.

All past lifes are clear.
The inner heart is full of excitement.
Your smile makes me happy.
Your flute hypnotises me.

Your tune attracts me deeply.
Your love makes me swoon.
Your light awakenes my consciousness.
Your light is filling up the universe.

[ATMAN]

Listen, listen, oh humans of the earth!
An unknown traveller has come.
In His eyes shines a glow of love.
Who knows what message He speaks?

In the rhythm of dance,
He moves along.
With the magic of melody,
He binds all.

Come one and all!
Just see, just see how charming He looks!

Resonating the sound of jingling bells
into everyone's ears,
Spreading rays of effulgence into everyone's lives,
He speaks:

"Look ! I have brought a bucketful
of the nectar of immortality
to distribute to the world."

[ATMAN]

Oh people of the world, behold!
To those who were seeking Me,
I gave them what they desired.
Now the light of humanism has spread.

Spriritual humanism has entered the heart.
And those with heart,
what have they done?
The have tightly bound me
within their hearts.

[ATMAN]

Oh Lord, Your Divine show
finds expression in every rhythm.

You are present in every atom.
You lie hidden in every recess,
You dance in every particle.

In dream I found You,
In dream I became introduced to You.
In dream I loved You,
In dream I understood You.

Oh embodiment of consciousness!
You are the candle flame in each life.
You resonate in all lyres.

You are the fragrance of every flower.
You are the coolness of sandalwood.
You are the murmur of the dense forest
and the sweetness of honey.
You are the water fountain on the dry desert path.

Continue spreading forth
Your pole star-like effulgence!
