Chaitanya


      
The highest truth 
had arrived was revealed,
  but somehow it was hidden and

was not truly perceive by the mind;
  The reason why the sweetest love
is invisible to most people's eyes

and only perceptible to those 
with perfect intelligence;
Except for the few,
who had tasted the 
nectar of your love, 
no one can truly 
understand you,
most merciful One.


Your pain,
your reason,
 your devotion,

the real purpose 
of your incarnation
is a known mystery,
  Sweet Sadness.



Without your mercy,
It is not possible for anyone,
particularly for the the sinful,
to truly appreciate the joy 

and amazing wonders 
of your love;

  Even the great souls 

of the past had fallen 
from the holy land
because the uncontrolled mind 
is ever-changing and 
restless like the wind.

O  my Lord,
with all my sins 
and imperfections,
 please allow me 

to serve you;
  For I desire that 

after my last breath,
at the footprints of 

Your lotus feet,
I may lie on 

"its ground".
