Mahavir Vardhaman

Composed on May. 5th, 1995

Lyrics:

Mahavir Mahavir Mahavir Mahavir
Minati akuti bhakati pranati mama shir
Tirthankar tirthankar antar taba kripa nirjhar
He Vardhaman he Vardhaman he Vardhaman
Maha sadhanar maha muktir maha sandhan

Translation:

Sri Chinmoy's Translation:

Mahavira, Mahavira, Mahavira!
In prayerful supplication I bow my head to you.
Do accept my soulful obeisance.
O pilgrim of the Highest, ever wandering free,
You heart is a ceaseless compassion-fountain.
O Vardhamana, O Vardhamana, O Vardhamana!
By virtue of sleepless and breathless askesis
You made the discovery supreme:
Each bondage-life can and shall attain
  Liberation of the Beyond.
