An Ode to Shambhu – The Cosmic Dancer

First of all, Thank you so much to you all for such an encouraging words for my last post. All the comments became an inspiration for me to be able to share my musings and compositions with you all. Please pardon me for all the mistakes as I have neither learnt writing nor singing but as I progress on my path, this is something that naturally comes to me and gives me immense pleasure, faith and peace within. In these moments of singing, I feel closeness to the Supreme and with Goddess Saraswati’s grace, words are able to flow on its own so that I can express the inexplicable.

I hope I am able to do justice to the divine opportunity Swamiji has given us all through letting us all share our experiences with each other.

    English Translation of Hindi Lyrics:

     Where do you go to worship the Divine?

     Go to the core of your own consciousness,

     He is revealed only in the eye of wisdom;

     Seeing him within, Know him alone ,

     To be the one who is conscious in all,

     And then enjoy the dance of Sambhu- The cosmic dancer;

      Go find him within, Go find him within……

      You are just a mere toy in hands of divine,

      Why do you want to play your own game?

      Surrender to him and dance to his tunes happily,

      For He alone knows, He alone knows it all;

      Go find him within, Go find him within……

      Why do you worry for future so much?

      Do you really know what will happen tomorrow?

     Under the capture of darkness you are, the Jiva, the ignorant,

    Just watch your actions in the present for that’s all you know,

    Rest leave unto him as He alone is all, the past, present and future – the Mahakaal.

    Where do you go to worship the Divine?

     Go to the core of your own consciousness,

     He is revealed only in the eye of wisdom.

 Hindi Lyrics:

Dekh le usko apne mann ke aankhon se, 

Shiv Sambhu bas waheen milegaa;  

Jaan le usko ghar-ghar ke aagan mein,

Shiv Shambhu phir naach uhtegaa;

Dekh le usko………….

Tu hai uskaa ek khilona,

Apni chaabi kyun daale,

Naach le tu bas taal meen uski,

Mast Malang wohi Jaane;

Dekh le usko…………..

Dekh le usko apne mann ke aankhon se, 

Shiv Sambhu bas waheen milegaa;  

Jaan le usko ghar-ghar ke aagan mein,

Shiv Shambhu phir naach uhtegaa;

Kal ki fikr tu kyun kartaa hai,

Kal ko khan tu yun jaane,

Aaj tu apne karam deki le,

Baaki woh hai, woh Jaane.

Dekh le usko………….

Dekh le usko apne mann ke aankhon se,

Shiv Sambhu bas waheen milegaa;

Jaan le usko ghar-ghar ke aagan mein,

Shiv Shambhu phir naach uhtega;

HAR HAR MAHADEV!!!!!
