Clad in a simple white sari
Oh! that eloquent ever smiling nari
She is gone ,
gone to the abode of heaven to be reborn
May we moan not,
for she has finally attained freedom from the shackles of time and space
May we cry not,
for it may slow down her majestic ship`s pace.
May we worry not,
for the sea would be calm and clear,
And there would be no foam of doubt and fear.
May we not be sad and pensive,
even though the tickets may be very expensive,
For she is the one who fully deserved
a seat beside him carefully preserved.
Amma, You may be very far away,
but You will always be there in our hearts to stay.
You loved and cared for all patiently responding to everyone’s call.
How can we forget that ever present smile,
which would encourage us to go that extra mile.
How can we forget those lips and eyes,
full of love care and advice.
How can we forget the touch of those soft hands,
which could cure an ill like the touch of a magical wand.
Forget let us not to keep her dreams alive
to work hand in hand in every step of life.
Your blessings will always show us the way
May You receive bliss and solitude in every possible way.
