lyrics

Guru, you are a mighty river
And I am a tiny stream
But you know the way to the ocean
So I will follow you
So I can reach the ocean too

Guru, you are the perfect tree
And I am a tiny fruit
Through your love and grace I can ripen
So I’ll remain attached to you
And grow to be a tree too

Guru, you are a blazing sun
And I am a tiny moon
It’s only your light I’m reflecting
So I bow and pray to you
That I might be self-shining too

Oh my beloved, bless me
To desire the truth
And be attached only to you

Oh my beloved, guide me
Across the ocean of life
To the shore of the divine

Oh my beloved, free me
From this cage of mine
So the soul bird can fly
