Religion
One Thing
Translated by Nicol Macnicol (1919) · From Psalms of Maratha Saints (1919)
Religion
One thing I of my Lord entreat,
That I may ever serve his feet.
That I in Pandhari abide,
Always his holy saints beside.
Or high or low my birth may be;
Still, Hari, I would worship thee!
Lord of Kamala, Nama prays,
O grant me this through all my days.
