Narayaneeyam
Dashaka 93
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
May I not be like the pigeon who for the love of its offsprings was killed by the hunter, along with them. Like the python may I eat whatever is available and also endure hunger when nothing is available. Let me be deep and serene like the ocean. Let me not fall a prey to the lust of women like a moth to fire. O Lord! let me seek the essence of things like the honey bee and unlike it let me not perish in accumulating wealth. |
