\nMy Naren,
\nYou have struggled and struggled,
\nYou have fought and fought
\nTo manifest me. <\/p>\n
Our Thakur,
\nYou have cried and cried,
\nYou have served and served
\nTo illumine me.<\/p>\n
My Naren,
\nYour heart of love,
\nYour mind of light
\nAre my giant shoulders.<\/p>\n
Our Thakur,
\nYour Feet of Compassion,
\nYour Eyes of Perfection
\nAre my Dream-Boat
\nAnd
\nReality-Shore.<\/p>\n
