Cry of a Shameless Slave ******************* http://www.jaihoon.com/egoptics/shameless.htm It is a commonly accepted fact, (That) there are limits for favors to ask Relations with others are bound By manners when arises certain want One may request. Then ask. And again. But for every favor to you given Shall be given another in return… O Listener of my woes! O Fulfiller of my wants! O who raised my name! O who spread my fame! O Solver of my hardships! O Remover of harm! O Originator of wonders! You have indeed heard me No complaint do I have against You I have asked You for so many years But Your Reply make them appear as days I have learnt only for favors to ask I am used for Your Reply to reach I am more confident of Your Prompt Answer Than my own questions which in me trigger Without feeling any shame have I asked I wished for rain, but not ready to be soaked And yet again, I dare to ask again. For more gain- Your Bountiful Rain! I ask You, O my Generous Master! A shameless slave I am But not a deceitful sham! Grant me the generous favor To thank for all that You did deliver If You made me the envy of the humans By giving me blessings in abundance Then make me also the envy of angels To pay You gratitude for these miracles! - Jaihoon |
