We have found an excellent trade, we have reached the place of desire; we have settled our faith at Thy feet, our life has found repose.
The happy omen has borne fruit; we have escaped from all misery; now that we have seen Thee, we shall live and die no more.
Good it is that I came to this place; my legs have done well to bring me here.
We have turned from the life of bodily sense, we rest under the shadow of Brahma.
We have found a treasure, inexhaustible, imperishable, full of bliss.
We have seen even His feet who is form beyond form, the slayer of Madana.
This is an old coin of the early ages; it has long been hoarded up. It has been counted strange and laid aside; we have walked over it without knowing it.
Now that I have embraced Him, for my soul’s sake I will not leave him.
Tuka says, I am weary, O leader of the world; do not let my eyes rest on another.
