And
Completeness –
Every minute detail of
Your act
Has passed through
The darkness and the fire,
And it is now
A new world,
A world that is free
And yet
Profoundly surrendered –
What a refined beauty,
A vibrant perfection,
An offering
Exquisitely ordered,
Is your figure,
Sri Ganesh –
You are the first
Purohit,
The Mother’s Light
Is
Your sweet crown
With the smile
Eternal…

Sri Ganesh you appear today
As a voice, a sign and a channel
For the Shakti,
Invincibly strong
And yet
Eternally benevolent,
And you let yourself
Be thus seen
Slowly,
By all around –
A mystery to be
Propitiated
For those who still know fear,
And a delightful emblem
