Mayer Mata Hate Nichu
Mayer mata hate nichu
Shikhli na je man
Bara loker karis puja
Dukhir ajatan
Bhalobasa mayer matan
Dukhi cheler adhik jatan
Achis bhule sahaj satya
Ore amar man
Sakal prane sarba sthane
Achen narayan
Translation
O mind, why have you not learned
To bend your head like the Mother?
You worship the so-called Great One.
Like the Mother, love the weak
And the poor more.
You neglect this simple truth.
Love the world like the Mother,
Irrespective of her children’s achievements.
O mind, why have you forgotten the simple truth
That God in all abides?
Sri Chinmoy, Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 2, Agni Press, 1978
