I tried to find solace in this materialistic world
\nFor so long, I forgot the true nature of this self,
\nUntil the day where I got exhausted,
\nfinding nothing which could give me happiness.<\/p>\n
That day Divine Mother, You came as a beam of light
\nYou took me in Your arms and hugged me
\n\u201cDaughter, Amma is always with you,
\nseek within and not without\u201d is what You told me,
\nI closed my eyes and saw Your resplendent form,
\nWith both Your arms stretched out to me, you called me,
\nYou put me on Your lap, showed me the way.<\/p>\n
But now that I am seeking out to You Mother, I cannot find you,
\nEverything is blurred inside; maya (illusion) is taking over
\nIn this stone-filled path of life, a lonely wanderer walks alone
\nWaiting for Her mother to come and take her by the hand,
\nto guide her and take her to the Ultimate Destination.<\/p>\n
\u201cAmma, where are You, where are You?\u201d
\nOh Divine Mother, where did you go and hide yourself?
\nDay and night, this desperate soul cries out for Mother,
\nPlease do not delay anymore, come and see Your child.<\/p>\n
