Beyond the confines of life and death
Friend of mine, there you remain.
In the desolate sky of my heart
Your exalted seat, obscured with light -
With which endless hope, intense delight
Do I stare at it, arms opened wide.
Beyond the confines of life and death
Friend of mine, there you remain.
Voiceless night washes, wipes your feet
Lays her darkness-tresses beneath
What is this song that floods my all today
As it descends from your veena to play
I find the world in your plangent tune
As I lose myself to its pain.
Beyond the confines of life and death
Friend of mine, there you remain.
- Guru Purnima 2023.
