Praise Goddess Sarasvati, white as the lotus flower,
like the moon glistening on the snow in the Himalayas.
The music of the universe streams forth.
May she grant me her abundance and assistance,
may she take away my lethargy!
From silence arises sound, and sound leads us to silence.
Where do thoughts arise from?
What is the space between thoughts?
The goddess of expression leads us to that which cannot be expressed.
Choices Make a Statement
In the rose garden,
Under the shadow of the lonely eucalyptus tree,
I relax for a nap,
When the song unknown,
Charming and stirring,
Carries me away,
Enticing my spirit,
While the other fragrance,
Than that of the flowers,
Appears from nowhere,
Ensuing an immortal chase,
My soul leaps so high,
Does not seem to run,
But fly among the leaves of the tree!
I see the flashes from thy eyes,
Large to my dizzy eyes!
I see the dust rising behind,
You seem to float in air,
Covering my space!
Oh my Angel!
Your tender form expires,
As the blossoms perish in fire,
My gentle life can’t endure,
This deadly arrow sharp and sure!
Oh my Angel!
Because of you,
This spot has turned tranquil,
With open doors,
For my love to pour!
The care and desire,
Oh my heart, your wish is won!
My body leaves, not my love,
The mortal remains move away, not my mind,
For, back to you my fancies fly,
Like the silken banner,
Against the hurricane wind!
