Unravel, mend what's broken, Ram,
Ferry my soul across the stream.
Through ages, I've wandered, lost and lone,
Through ages, a wanderer unknown.
Now, show me the path, O Ram,
Unravel, mend what's broken, Ram.
Ram, O Ram, Sitaram, O Ram,
Darkness descends, a chilling shroud,
My heart, a frightened, fluttering cloud.
Entangled in illusion's snare,
This fool is lost beyond compare.
Now banish the dark, I implore,
Now awaken wisdom's core,
Ignite the light, O Ram,
Unravel, mend what's broken, Ram.
You gifted life, a sacred trust,
A kindness born of purest dust.
Yet, in that life, we failed to see,
At every step, our apathy.
As yours we are, in every guise,
Good or bad, beneath your skies.
Forget our flaws, our faults, Ram,
Unravel, mend what's broken, Ram,
Ferry my soul across the stream.
Ram, O Ram, Sitaram, O Ram.
