Ram Within the Heart

Ram is not distant, not lost in time,

But dwelling within, in rhythm sublime.

Not just in Ayodhya, nor Lanka’s flame,

He lives in the heart, beyond form and name.

When anger rises, when ego stands tall,

Whisper “Ram,” and watch it fall.

When sorrow weeps, when hope seems dim,

Light the lamp of Ram within.

O Ram, You are the breath I take,

The dawn that breaks, the truth awake.

The silence in temples, the bells that ring,

The eternal song all beings sing.

I seek not palaces, nor worldly throne,

For Your lotus feet are all I own.

The river of mind flows restless, wild,

But calms in the vision of Ram so mild.

What is liberation? What is bliss?

It is Ram’s name in every kiss.

It is love unbroken, a soul’s pure flame,

It is merging with the sound of “Ram, Ram.”

O Lord of compassion, O Lord so true,

All that I am belongs to You.

Guide me through shadows, through life’s great sea,

Until my heart finds eternity.

For Ram is not just a tale to recite,

But the hidden sun behind all light.

Chant His name, let illusions part,

And find the eternal Ram in the heart.
