From the ocean of compassion.
From the ocean of compassion.


O shame! i have lived my life in vain,
My birth was all for naught;
I neglected to serve my beloved lord.
Service of the Lord never began.
He came within my grasp
Though close by and available,
And yet
I did not accept Him in my life;
I could not attain him,
I did not receive Him in my heart.
I could not contain him
Within my fickle heart's breath.


Cruel fate has meted me out this pitiful lot.
