As the embodied soul continually passes
From boyhood to youth and then to old age
Similarly soul also passes
From this body to another at death
The self-realized soul
Is not bewildered by such a change
From dusk till dawn in search of divine
Hours of prayer and devotion of mind
But when the blank shadow
Showed its real face
Illusions and motions all
Blended in grace
All visions collapse
I take this moment of inertia
To give birth to a new soul
To step further and beyond
To share my true nature
To furnish what's worn out
To ask for what's been left around
Turn from delusions back to reality
Meditate on walls and move by the deity
Detach yourself from all that exist
Stop imagining or seeking anything
To seek is to suffer
Glorify the way of enlightenment
To seek is to suffer
Glorify the way of enlightenment
To seek is to suffer
Glorify the way of enlightenment
Be free from the impurity of being
Be free from the impurity of self
Be free from the impurity of being
Be free from the impurity of self
Though I do no wrong
I'm punished by my past
By suffering injustice
I enter the path
Neither Gods nor men can foresee
To seek is to suffer
To seek nothing is bliss
All visions collapse
I take this moment of inertia
To give birth to a new soul
To step further and beyond
To share my true nature
To furnish what's worn out
To ask for what's been left around
Deluded people
Seeking
Longing for something
Be the wise and wake up
Choose
Reason over custom
Fix the mind
On the sublime
Let the body change with the seasons
