DAIVADASAKAM (Ten Poem of god ) by Narayana Guru

DAIVADASAKAM
( Ten poem of God ) 

From the most high, O Divine,
protect us here,
do not leave us.
you are the navigator
of this ocean of ephemeral becoming,
and (to us) your name is a mighty steam ship.

Counting one by one, when everything perceivable is done with,
the n the seeing is steadied; even so,
let the inner self attain its rest in you.
Ever having given us food and clothes
and providing for all such needs,
making us rejoice in our contentment,
You are our only Lord.

As ocean, wave, wind and dept
Let us within see the scheme
of us, nescience,
your glory and you.
You are that fact of creation, the creator
and the myriad variety of what is created;
Oh god, are you not the very stuff of which everything is created?

Are you not Maya, the wielder of maya
and also the rejoicer in maya?
Are you not the True one who,
having removed maya, grants the supreme Union.
You are existence, knowledge and the endeared value;
you yourself are the present, the past and the future
When considered, You are none other
than the articulated world also.

That state which fills, inside a well as outside,
Brim fully with Your glory,' We adore That,
Blessed God of Goodness,
Hail, victory to You.
Victory be to you, God of gods'

Ever intent on saving those in need.
Victory be to you, Blissful intelligence
through and through
Hail, Oh! Ocean of Mercy.
In the deep ocean of Your glory,
Immersed, let us all become
There to dwell, dwell everlastingly
In Felicity Supreme!
