Prabháta Saḿgiita 812

31 August 1983, Kolkata

Udayácale mana májhe ele,
Manke rauńiye dile,
Sure táne bharile
Práńe udvel kará kii tále.

Surasaptake báṋdhiyá viińá
Hrday-kamale satata ásiiná,
Bhávátiita bodhi bháve halo liiná,
Kon se rágińii d́hálile,
Tumi kon se rágińii d́halile.

Nayana meliyá jata dúre cái
Tumi cháŕá ár keha kothá nái,
Nayana mudiyá hiyáte cáhiyá
Sekháneo dekhi liilá cale.
Tava liilá cale prati pale.

Madhumálaiṋca, Kolkata, 31/8/83

You came in my mind with the sunrise
Colouring all my thoughts.
You filled me with your melodies,
Overwhelming me with rhythm.

Playing Your viińá, tuned to the seven-note scale,
You remain ever ensconced in my lotus heart,
Merged in a trance of transcendental cognition.
What a unique melodies do You pour forth?

As far as my vision can stretch,
I see none but You.
Even when I close my eyes and look within,
I glimpse You,
Revealing every second Your inscrutable play.
