Poem 567

In plain words

Saying, 'Now, or a little later, You will come,' I have watched for You time after time; saying, 'Today, or else tomorrow, You will take me as Your own,' I have watched for You in hope every day; saying, 'Today or the next day, You Yourself will look on me,' I have watched for You day after day; saying, 'Will You give darśan, will You come today?' I have watched for You hour after hour. I have waited: whatever moment Your mind turns to me, that very day will be a holy day for me; for that day I keep waiting, O You whose form is the Ātma; in whatever way You will, fulfil my longing, dear Lord.
