Dhulikana Ami Nikhil Dharar
Dhulikana ami nikhil dhararAti chota dhulikana
Chira sathi mor bishwa janani
Lavi sada mor santana
Alo shishu ami abhay mayer
Shashwata dinatama
Harashe bishate jay-parajaye
Ami chira manorama
I know, I am a speck of dust.
Yet the Mother of the Universe
Eternally stays with me.
She is my eternal Companion.
She is my only Consolation.
On the one hand, I am the poorest of all.
On the other hand, I am the child of light
Of the Mother of the Universe.
May I remain unperturbed
In all happiness and sorrows.
Sri Chinmoy, Pole-star promise-light, part 2, Agni Press, 1977
