Ananda! O Ananda! Ananda! O Ananda!With beauty comes new Ananda!With Ananda, new loveliness!Ananda! O Ananda! Premavahini poured Ananda;First it came from Baba’s hand!Dhyanavahini, He gave us next!And then to give our restless selvesThe key to peace, He wrote for usPrashantivahini, from His graceAnanda! O Ananda! Saivahini—It then took formAs Jnanavahini, the wisdom stream,To light the thorny parts of doubtIn mental realms of you and me;He sat by us and held our handAnd led us into Truth!Ananda! O Ananda! The fifth! It is here, it flows from now,The holy Dharmavahini,To steer the lives of scholars and of simple folkTo teach, fulfill His purpose grand,To tell us how to spend our span of yearsTrue to the Truth He has built us on!Ananda! O Ananda! Tremors in griha and terror in grahaThey melt like fog before Anu-graha!The Lord of grahas! He is our Lord, too!We are both housed in Mansion sameSo our might is just the same as theirs.Ananda! O Ananda! The Grahas won’t harm, elements rebel—They all obey His will, His plan!The load of births, the burden of the pastHis Will destroys; He shapes anew.Ananda! O Ananda! Dharmavahini, it has sprung today!Slaking inquiry, teaching the waySaving and solving, strengthening resolve,Come, let us read, reflect and act!Ananda! O Ananda!
