Rudra - Ravens Of Paradise lyrics

rate me

The sorrow is unbearable when countless desires devour me<br />

Life is but a worthless mime which robs away my peace of mind<br />

I now renounce this crown of thorns called Dharma<br />

But this wanting madness never ends! Not even in paradise! <br />

<br />

Nothing is worth seeking when everything is relative<br />

I see all reduced to nothing; ashes seem to be it's essence<br />

Oscillating between pleasure and pain<br />

The futility of Karmas is glaring<br />

This pain ushers realization that these swans are indeed ravens<br />

<br />

Thus Vairagya set me free<br />

Viveka shall set me free<br />

<br />

Om bhurbhuvah svah sannyastam maya<br />

<br />

Mumukshutvam shall set me free<br />

Shatka Sampat can set me free<br />

<br />

Recognize the elusive pleasure in all<br />

Recognize the deadening pain in all<br />

Realize where there is mind even in paradise one can't be free<br />

<br />

Ashimahi vayam bhikshamashavaso vasimahi<br />

Shayimahi mahiprshthe kurvimahi kimishvaraih<br />

<br />

"Face covered with wrinkles, head painted white with grey hair, <br />

The limbs so feeble, yet desire alone stays youthful"
