જૈનધર્મ વિકાસ
Light of Religion. Oh Godly spy why you ranaway far far And very far from the religious Sages, Left parent, happy joy, dances of love And put only best big works. Kindly teachers keeping for academy Pupils strive for your knowledge-sway, Listening your said word to word Our throne empty without you.
. 8 Lamp without palace wind without body, Edge without knife water without sea, Salt without feast moon without night, How shall we live without you in Sansar. 12 Love ! Love ! your kindly love peeping in my dream Said to us Go and do my unfinished works; You followed the Jain great men path, Where when you are we see eye to eye. your flame of light burning in my heart, The acts of oil still remembering for ever; The body changed into dust but name for ever, How shall we fatch your heartily thoughts. 20 Lost! Lost is lost. Lost for ever Mercy, silence, gentle speech learning from you, How I climb to reach up your said thoughts; Lost heartily but weare in darken earth. Gold star moving on the sky field, Seeing ambrosia rays just like your speech; Where when I heard your lastly knell, At that time the tears in my eyes. Beatitude ! Beatitude ! you be a beatitude, Where nothing born death and only for joys; Let me see the true path of heaven, Tears ! Tears ! the tears in my eyes.
