1. My master, you are the truth, might,
Pride, dew, and loftiness.

2. You made yourself equally shared in the air,
The soil and space are equal under you.

3. All we can do for you is love,
Reverence, standing still, and bowing down.

4. And consider good-doers, and when one does good,
It is an act, and when one does evil, a recompense.

5. O so attached to the earth! Yet it and he
Are a recumbence, a grace, and growth.

6. O gentle one who took from the fierce lion
A tail, so the howling weakened.

7. O ray from the prophecy that the earth takes guidance from,
That the heaven sent down.

8. O descendant of the two dawns, Buddha and Confucius,
From them, their years give light.

9. O merciful one who joined hearts on embers
Of love, so enmity melted away.

10. And a nation prone to unsheathe the sword of aggression met,
It is the lonely legacy.

11. O leader who bonded the riffraff,
And the destitute clung to him, protected by the poor.

12. O shouts at humanity that did not make
The smile silent from it, but calamity and hardship.

13. O planet that the murky halo of misery
Receded from.

14. And the sword sheathed, and violence retreated, and necks unchained,
And blood was not spilled.

15. You said "Be something" to hundreds of millions,
So they became, and the best thing to will.

16. In the ignorant East grew an orchard singing praise,
Watered with the dew of good and mercy.

17. Then Delhi, Peking called, so it answered them,
And it echoed the call back from them.

18. Then it rumbled here, and though it deafens hearing
In the East, echoes crawl.

19. You're not the wondrous magician they claimed,
But a will and a determination.

20. And capable of miracles is a conscience
Of purity, essence, and serenity.

21. You're not the wondrous magician, but
A decree whose time came and fate.

22. You were in it the conscience of those millions,
They awoke, and the veil lifted from them.

23. And faithful to their great message,
And its duty was due and the performance.

24. O beautiful in chest, boasting of the treasure
Within it, his lucid conscience.

25. Gandhi protected the blood of the masses and protected
India, so the ravenous would not ravage it.

26. And he sheltered birds and beasts from slaughter,
And an lenient law stood upright.

27. Does his shrine spill
Stains of his blood, red?

28. O East, you still have passions
That rebelled, and diseases still.

29. And peace be upon the prophet who supported him
With a soul from where the prophets are.
