Song of Vallalar 

December 28,2008

 

Canvas of the east painted veils of colours

Light yet to descend on leaves of grass

Silhouette of Siddhi Valakam meditated silence;

Before the lamp glowing in the glory of grace

The saint closed his eyes in bliss absolute;

Divinity percolated the sanctum of his soul

Lightning of wisdom whipped the ignorant

Claps of thunder clasped the edge of silence.

 

With the sceptre of grace glowing in glory

Clad in penance of truth, the timeless saint

Burnt feathers of falsity, with exaggeration;

Canons of world crashed at the feet of wisdom

Wish of the saint snapped locks of mystery

Souls spread wings into freedom absolute;

Astride on the saddle of wisdom, the saint

Blended peacock and cuckoo into one

Beyond cause and effect, in eight and two;

Octagonal assembly vibrates cosmic self

Glory of grace glows in the open spaces.

Silence reigns within the closed stable

The Saint is not sitting within the palanquin

Shoulders of disciples weigh emptiness;

Doors of the temple bolted to the faithless

Steps to the sanctum unlit to the ignorant;

Songs of divinity sowed seeds of science

Fire of compassion cured disease of hunger

Reclining on the couch of deathless eternity

The saint sang songs of soul on immortality

Bones of master recline not on clay of earth.

 

The Saint walks pathless and formless,

Nameless and ageless before his birth;

He walks now breathless and painless,

East rises darkness when light not seen

Silence sets senses when sound not heard;

Ganges is not name to water but to path

Invisible are the rivers in expanse of ocean

Form is never the proof of self but of name;

From net of fate barges out the fish of birth

By plunge into freedom with fins of fraternity

From equality to flocks of unitary universality.

 

Glory of glowing grace dances in absolute bliss

The wakeful soul in solitude is ever hungry

Oh Saint of light, oh Saint of immortal life, tell me

Which is east in the land of thousand suns?

 

 

Written in respectful reminiscence of Vallalar,

the greatest saint, the world has ever known.

I bow my head before you in all humility.
