Tell me what should I ask of you
What shall I ask of you
Steadfastness of mountains
Softness of flowers
An earth bedecked with flowers and bees
Or the bottom of the empty sky
Everything that I want to ask is finite
Shall I ask for a beautiful printed image
Or a gem from the ocean
Or the gentle smile of a lotus
Or the divine sward of lord Shiva
Or a deep blue radiance for my body
Or the limitless universe
Or the ocean’s horizon
I just cannot think what to ask you
You tell me what should I ask of you
Should I ask for the exotic love of the evening sky
Or the laughter of my beloved
Or pleasure from the erotic lover
Or rhythm from the divine lover
I am still in a dilemma what to ask
Tell me now what shall I ask you?
My body tells me to ask for this
My mind tells me to ask for that
The heart tells me to ask only for this
While wisdom tells me to ask only for that
Shall I ask for this or that
Everything is impermanent, what shall I ask for?
The soul in me whispers to ask for every thing
To ask for what is truth and nothing else
So why shouldn't I ask just for you?
For you to be with me every moment
So that I may ask you for whatever I want
Whenever I want.
OM!
