Sapthapathi
Sapthapathi
These seven steps, we take around noble Fire,
Each step shall bring our hearts and souls together
For all our good wishes and humble desires,
Shall be fulfilled by God the overseer.
Let the first step maketh the best of friendship,
Between us, bonds of live affection and courtship,
The aecond shall, give us strength,
warmth of life, life to its fullest length.
The third giveth,good children to name,
clothing and shelter, wealth and fame,
In the fouth, we pray for immense willpower,
in facing life, its joys and sorrows together.
The fifth blesseth, with the finest Grandeuer,
of children great, near and dear,
the sixth shall shower us oleasant days,
when we together shall search for heavenly ways.
At the seventh step, Dear, we ahall wait, for heavenly nod,
on total surrender , to the lotus feet of God.
