Songs of Saint Tayumanavar

Songs of Tayumanavar

Veda (8/10)

''What is there that I can do?
It is all Thy will'' -
Thus at times I think.
But when maya of evil ways blinds me,
''All is of my own doing'' - I say.
And yet at still other times
I lie prostrate, unaware of anything happening.
Pray will it so
That this witless one
By Thine own deed
Walketh in the path of righteousness.
Oh! Thou, Guru Holy
That is Truth-Knowledge-Bliss!
