Vrindavan
By Ananda Vrindavan Devi Dasi
When will I walk
The path entering vrindavan
When will I be ready?
It waits for me
I see it in the shadows of
My early morning chants
When will I be fully turned
In the direction of that place
When will I be fully drawn in
When will I breathe no more
Of earthly desires and
Breathe fully the spirit
When will I hold still and be full
And be free
And really see
