Ah, Blessed Lord! Oh, High Deliverer!
Forgive this feeble script which doth Thee wrong
Measuring with little wit Thy lofty Love.
Ah, Lover! Brother! Guide! Lamp of the Law!
I take my refuge in Thy name and Thee!
I take my refuge in Thy Law of God!
I take my refuge in Thy Order! _Om!_
The Dew is on the lotus--rise, great Sun!
And lift my leaf and mix me with the wave.
_Om mani padme hum_, the Sunrise comes!
The Dewdrop slips into the Shining Sea!
