Narsinh Mehta

Adi Kavi] (1414? – 1481? / Talaja, Bhavnagar, Gujarat / India

It's You, It's You, You Are Looking For

It's you, it's you, you are looking for, just think and experience for yourself!
Why do you roam around in vain!
It's you, it's you, you are looking for, just think and experience for yourself
Having lost at your own game,
you have unknowingly assumed your mortality!
What you think you are, is merely your outward form.
Avoid deception and seek your true self!
It's you, it's you, you are looking for, just think and experience for yourself!

Bewildering is this game and you have remained the same!
Arriving and departing from this world, without loss, without gain!
By being all the things in this entire universe,
Your true self plays this divine game!
It's you, it's you, you are looking for, just think and experience for yourself

Only you were caught in the ebbing tide of self-ignorance,
Only you contemplated on the Self!
With ‘Narsinhness’, you experienced this game
- you indeed were made for your game!
It's you, it's you, you are looking for, just think and experience for yourself
