Dr. Sudipta Mishra, Bhubaneswar, 3 December 2022
In such a cosmic realm of endless choices,
Let me behold the entire ambience,
Let me quench my thirsty spirit.
I should not forget the ephemeral fragrance of this delight.
Oh Lord, allow the ever-burning desire of my heart
To be one with the natural world.
To glorify my material mind with the blessing of nature,
Every time I crave to satiate my indomitable desire.
I want to paint my life with the ever-growing hues of this woodland.
With the everlasting echoes of an immortal bird,
Let me seek renunciation from this fatal realm.
Oh God, I long to intoxicate my reckless self in this daydream.
