If I put my Beloved Supreme
Always first in my life,When I pray to Him
To fulfil my undivine desires,First He delays
And then He forgets to fulfil them.When I pray to Him
To fulfil my divine aspirations,He not only fulfils them
Infinitely sooner than my expectationOr even my imagination,
But He also fulfils my innocent desiresWith utmost Joy.
