HYMN TO SEVEN HILLS LORD

Lord Venkateshswara (Srinivasa)

   

         


















                             

                     My heart soon flies to Thee, oh God !

                                When I behold your face, sacred seven hills Lord !

                                You are the center of cosmic ocean

                                Without you, there is no creation;

                                High upon these lofty hills you stay

                                As if to test our faith amidst life’s fray ;

                                We trust you as our guide, our way ;

                                 With you, we have no fear, doubt and dismay ;

     

                             Bless us with your moon-cool beneficent looks

                              We can’t know you, Lord beyond three holy books ;

                              Bless us, lord seated on holy serpent-bed ;

                              Bless us, Lord of sacred Garuda red :

                              Bless us Lord of Lakshmi, with Thy peace-giving smile 

                          May we ever think of you in our life’s journey, mile after mile .

  Note :            1)   Three holy books  = Three Vedas

                          2)    Serpent-bed      =  Adi Sesha, the serpent symbolizing creation.

                          3)    Garuda red       = The mount of Vishnu symbolizing spiritual 

                                                                      Knowledge and devotion.
