Dear Sonal - Meenal,

Thank you so much for expressing and sharing your heart, through this beautiful poem. We love to share and translate this for our children and with our karyakartas of Ekatva. I was blessed to be a witness what you have expressed and was able to experience that evening all over again as i read this poem. What makes it the most beautiful thing about your poem is that you have captured the true essence, philosophy and vision of Manav Sadhna. "see the God in the children we love- serve".

A beautiful poem that our sister, Sonal, wrote for the children. Hope you can share it with the children and their families at some point. 

 

I see God in your eyes

 

As we waited excitedly in the summer's cool shade

Laughter filled the air and the dhol played

The sun shone brightly from heaven above

But paled in comparison to the light of your love

 

As I see your faces I wonder if you realise

That I see God when I look into your eyes

Eyes that sparkle with a twinkle beyond compare

To feel such warmth and love is truly rare

 

I don’t know you very well – we’ve just had the chance to meet

I don’t know what you like to do or what you like to eat

I don't know where you live - just that we are far apart

But I do know that you have a spirit that touches my heart

 

You have a boundless energy that is with you wherever you go

You are kinder and richer than most people I know

For the treasure you carry can never be taken away

It is your attitude and your dignity - come what may

 

I didn't have the opportunity to tell you; I wish I had had the chance,

To mention to you that when I saw you, and when I watched you dance

That you filled my heart with joy - I wish I could explain to you

But no words will suffice – so I fold my hands and bow to the God in you
