O companion on the path of movement!
O polestar in the dark night!
O incomparable hope to a distressed heart!
You have been my inspiration ages since.
You have been smiling from time immemorial,
in the stream of time,
as infinite One,
free from the bondages of pain and pleasure.
It is impossible to recognise You.
And to understand You,
is more arduous still.
To merging in You,
to becoming You,
there is really no alternative.
