Poem 550

In plain words

To bring Ānanda to all mankind and keep protecting them: this is My resolve; those who wander, having left the good path, to seize them and rescue them: this is My vow; to take away the heavy suffering of the poor and humble too and drive away their want: this is My Prema; those who worship Me with discipline and steadfastness, to guard them always: this is My glory; both good and evil, as one and equal in the mind to keep regarding them: this is My Bhakti; those who rejoice under My shelter, I never forget them: such is My word; I teach My mind no meanness of any kind; how then could such a name of Mine be sullied on earth!
