Each time my heart beats

It goes mad for you-

To touch your feet,

To touch your love

In this world’s hullabaloo,

I love you.

-

This beat is a reminder

Of how I am away

From you

And it beats and it beats

To be set free

Like the experience of

The Divine Sky Blue;

Or maybe black, I hardly care-

But my beats are caged in my ribs

Bouncing fiercely and-

It runs back to you!

-

Hiding from the world,

Quietly in a lonely room

I open your picture on my screen-

Your lotus smile,

Your merciful eyes,

Your lovely gait

And I wonder-

Will I be able to speak

When you come to me?

-

Ah you! Your vigraha!

The universe is the witness

Of your grandeur that ignorants miss

But I fall in love with you

And then again,

I rise in love with you

At your very feet-

While I drench in the ecstasy

Of the drop of your ocean.

-

Well, the fault is in me

That I stay away from you

And since eons, dear one,

You are right here

Waiting for me.

I am coming-

I am coming only for you!

Jai Shri Hari!
