My pulse quickens
a sweet feeling overtakes me
I hear the echo of His footsteps
Hari is near!
Hasten sleepy one
Awaken!
wipe the slumber
from your eyes
extinguish the dreams
of this world
Hari is near!
ignite the lamps within
waft the incense of your Love
Hari is near!
sun melts into moonlight
and there is only His breath
rising and falling
in the caverns of my chest
His eyes glowing,
illumining the dark pits
of my mind
His arms lifting, carrying me
across the raging currents
chaos and quagmire
of death and rebirth
One endless embrace
One eternal existence
One absolute, immutable
Self
