I See God **
I see my god, right before me, In every innocent smile I see, I see him. Inside every affectionate pair of eyes, God resides. Inside every kind heart, he constructs his temple. The knowledge learnt from the books, The wealth spent on a common cause, The happiness gained from other’s success. In all these selfless moments of life, I see the presence of god. The honest hard-working poor man, who lives his life on strength and sweat, I heard an echo of laughter from his hut, And could hear voice of god in it. So my dear friend, look not for him, In a church, temple or a Mosque, For inside every affectionate pair of eyes, God resides. Inside every kind heart, he constructs his temple.
~ Deep ~ ** This is a kind of translation of a beautiful Tamil song, written by a poet 'Kannadasan'. I have tried to translate the subject of the song to the best of my capability. The song contains so much of good thought, that I feel it needs to reach a wider audience than just belong to people speaking one particular language
