Help me O God By Neena Dighe Translated By Sushama Karnik

Give Me a Hand, O God

By Neena Dighe

Translated by Sushama Karnik

You who are the savior of this world,

You are the pillar of the three worlds,

You who are the essence of the Vedas,

You who are far beyond our human understanding,

And yet accessible to the ones who dedicate their life to the pursuit of that understanding,

You shower your grace and love upon them.

The whole world is merged in your love. You are the love and the passion for those with wisdom and knowledge of you in their hearts.

You are the fountain-head of Truth, Wisdom and Joy.

You have neither beginning nor end;

You are the Invisible Hand behind the script of life.

You are the one in whom Meera saw her beloved who could move a mountain.

You are the one who answered Sudama’s call.

You are the one who incarnated for Radha’s realization of love on this earth.

To each of them you threw open the gates of your wealth of love.

When those who could see the world and yet had no eye to see you,

 The otherwise blind Tulsi could see you with his mind’s eye.

There is no end to the magic you play/

You are the essence at the heart of this world.

I need your helping hand.

Help me cross the ocean of this life and take me to the shore O God.
