O pain I have suffered for You.
Do You not want to know?

You, rarest jewel of the seabed;
You, star of a distant sky.

Your heart comes not within my reach.
Diving deep into the ocean of form,
I will certainly realise You,
jewel like formless one.

Floating in the limitless reaches of mind,
I will certainly attain You,
O distant star.
You shall one day come within my reach.
The sadhana of my entire life will be fruitful.

The ocean of beauteous forms is approachable.
My heart's sky is filled with Your existence.
That's why You have willingly deluded my grasp,
You can no longer make me forgetful;
You can delude me no more.

O, the pain I have borne!
Don't You want to know,
rarest gem of the sea bed,
star of a distant sky.

I strive to grasp Your heart.
Diving deep into the ocean of form
I shall realise You,
jewel like formless one.

In the limitless expanse of mind
I shall reach You,
star of a distant sky.

One day
You shall come within my ken/grasp,
the sadhana of my life
shall bear fruit.

I approach
the ocean of beauteous forms,
heart's sky alive
with Your presence,
and yet
You elude me still.

O Lord, remove my forgetfulness,
delude me no more!
