Meaning::
You are the Truth of The Truth.Will you not show me the Truth? Father of The Creator,
Conquerer of illusion.[p]
You are the Ear of the Ear[power of hearing]You do not seem to have heard my prayers.
Poets serve you,You are infinite as the sky.[1]
You are the Eye of the Eye[power of sight.]You do not seem to have seen me.The Lotus eyed,The witness of the Universe.[c2]
You are the Mind of the Mind[The power of Thought]You have not thought of me.Your benediction
is boundless.[c3]
You are the Life of The Life[the power of life]It is most cherished.Where is the
indication of your love?The Lord of my Life[c4]
Listen to my prayers.Look at me.Think about me.Consider me as yours.Show mercy.Lord of Lakshmi,Oh kEShava[c5]
