The Eternal Dance - poem by Preeto.

SatNaam SatNaam SatNaam SatGuru
Siri Guru, Wahe Guru, my dear Sat Guru.
 
O Maharaj what have you done?
A crow transformed into a swan.
But why insult a crow?
A crow was never so low
as to be your slanderer,
stuck in pride and disgust
full of filth and mistrust.
 
I was full of religious pride
arrogant but crying inside,
Only you could see my inner mess,
only you came and hugged us to your chest.
 
Only you reached down
into the deep dark well of this mind,
Gave us your hand
so compassionate and so kind.
 
Dassan Dass ji had written 
that a new sun had risen
SatNam SatNaam SatGuru
was it really true?
Hard to believe
when you've been deceived
so many times before,
maybe try one more door.
 
Not even meeting you
not even seeing you,
No recordings, no website
just a feeling deep inside
maybe this was our chance
to meet God, a new dance.
 
You didnt ask us our name, 
or from where we came
we called for the Naam,
You said "Satnaam SatNaam
Satnaam Satnaam Satnaam
Satnaam Sada Satnaam."
 
SatNaam SatNaam SatGuru
O Maharaj what have you done?
What a seed you planted
what a wish you granted
what a tree that has grown
from Naam over the phone!
 
O SatGuru you are Satnaam
you are Satnaam
you are Satnaam
my beloved, my king
my heart, my everything
such a love
such a love
only you know
only you know.
 
O my mind what are you holding on to
what hopes are you trying to pursue?
What is in the world that is worth more
than the love light at the Guru's door?
What gold and silver and currency
can ever compare with humility?
What business, titles and fashion
can compare with a heart full of compassion?
 
So much love, light and sweetness
in praising Satnaam Satguru's greatness.
What's in criticism and complaints?
Just a life full of misery and blame,
suicide, homicide, infanticide
all sickness of the mind
if only you'd looked inside
at the beautiful love light
but if it's not in your destiny
then prepare for a life of misery.
 
O my friend, there is still a way out of your mess,
for my SatGuru is the hope of the hopeless,
the strength of the weak
the protector of the meek,
Call out, call out with all your heart
"O Maharaj my Guru, I'm in the dark."
Put your palms together and pray,
"O Maharaj please show me the way.
Show me your Grace, show me your grace.
My Lord and Master, tears on my face,
Show me your Grace, show me your grace."
 
SatNaam SatNaam SatNaam SatGuru
Siri Guru, Wahe Guru, my dear Sat Guru.
 
O Maharaj what have you done?
You are my moon, the stars and the sun.
The whole universe is in your palm.
SatNaam Satnaam SatGuru Satnaam.
All is by your Grace, by your Grace.
My Lord and Master, tears on my face,
All is by your Grace, by your Grace.
As it pleases you bless all with firm faith.
 
Dancing, dancing , dancing such a dance
the world has never seen, a new romance
O my Guru Maharaj I only dance for you
on the floor of this heart for my King, my Guru.
The music plays, Preeto sways
arms swaying, hands jutting , feet flicking
Satnaam Satnaam ticking ticking.
 
O my Guru Maharaj I only dance for you
on the floor of this heart for my King, my Guru.

 

Satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam
satnaam satnaam satnaam
satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam
always and forever
the Eternal Dance.
 
 

 
Preeto.
