Sri Ramprasad on Surrender
Everything is your desire,
Supreme Desire, oh Dear Mother.
All action you perform, Maa,
still people say that I have done.
Everything is your desire,
This bird of mind, it roams about,
flies from mountain peaks and dales.
Bring him down Maa and make him stop,
resting at your lotus feet.
Everything is your desire.
I am a tool, you are the craftsman,
I am a house, you are the master.
I am a car, you are the driver,
Just as you drive, just so I run.
Everything is your desire.
From Shree Maa: the Guru and the Goddess
