in translation

And here, I offer a translation of the song Amritha and I sang, that she so kindly offered a link and lyrics to. (I am certainly not an expert, so do please feel free to suggest corrections.)

The name is unknown,
The place of worship is unknown,
Service, prayer are all unknown to me.
All I know is that
'I' am unknowable.
Without one, there is no other...
no other.

You are our hope, our faith
You are our earth, our sky, o Rama

You are our mother and father
You are our friend and brother
You are our day, our night, our dusk, our dawn,
In the lamp, the sun, the moon, and the stars, o Rama
You alone are our light, o Rama

As I breathe, you come and go
It is to you alone that I relate
In every autumn of this forest of life, o Rama
You alone are the month of honey, o Rama

You are in all, all is in you
You are existence itself, and you are the giver of all
You are the tears in our eyes, o Rama
You are the smile on our lips, o Rama

Our Rama...
Our Giver...
