To the utterly at-one with Siva

To the utterly at-one with Siva

there's no dawn,
no new moon,
no noonday,
nor equinoxes,
nor sunsets,
nor full moons;

his front yard
is the true Benares,

O Ramanatha.


By Devara Dasimayya
(10th Century)

English version by A. K. Ramanujan

Now that’s a porch I’d like to sit on and sip a chai with Siva while we contemplate the lotuses floating by
