Here's a beautiful Sanskrit poem I learnt at school in India, when I was 10 years old. The teacher sang, we repeated and it was taught. But this poem has stayed on with me for many years, and I couldn't help but attempt to reimagine it. So here's this lovely poem, recreated with a blend of a harmonica's levity and an orchestral gravity!

Vocals and Arrangmenet: Ishuwar Seetharam, Stanford, USA.
Mastering: Nishad Mishra, Mumbai, India.

Meaning: 
Let us always remember,
Let us repeatedly speak out,
Our duty is to do good to humanity.

Let us not focus on material pleasures,
Nor lay in the lap of luxury.
Let us be awakened always that,
Our duty is to do good to humanity.

Let us not enumerate our sorrows,
Nor constantly reflect on our happiness.
Let us step up to take action,
Our duty is to do good to humanity.

We must sail over oceans of misery,
We must scale mountains of difficulty.
While roaming through the jungle of adversity,
Our duty is to do good to humanity.

It may be dense forest of extreme darkness,
Or we may be surrounded by kith and kin.
When we traverse these paths,
Our duty remains - to do good to humanity.

Meaning..
-----------------

Oh Lord who provides Joy, takes away Sadness and removes all “vighnas” (obstacles) in life

Who spreads love everywhere as his blessing

Who has lovely “shendur utna”(yellow-orange fragrance paste) all over his body


Who has a necklace of “Mukataphal”(pearls in Sanskrit) around his neck

Hail the god, Hail the god, Hail the auspicious idol

All our wishes are fulfilled just by “darshan” (looking at the idol)

Offering you a seat studded with Ratna(jewels) for you “Gaurikumra” (son of Gauri)

Smearing you with Chandan(Sandalwood) utna(paste) and Kumkum(Red Tilak) on the head

Diamond studded crown suites you right

Whose anklets tingle in his feet

Hail the god, Hail the god, Hail the auspicious idol

Lambodar Who wears a yellow cloth

Who has Straight trunk and is Vakratunda and Trinayana
“Vakratunda”one who breaks the ego of he who behaves anti-socially (‘Vakra’).
“Trinayana” the son of the 3 eyed (Lord Shiva)

I am waiting for you in my “Sadana” (home) just like the slave(used as devotee) of Lord Rama

Please help us and protect us during bad times, my Salutations to lord

Hail the god, Hail the god, Hail the auspicious idol
