Baṛaa niraalaa baṛaa hee paavan
man bhaavan ek naataa
Ek taraf hai saree duniyaa ek taraf hai maataa
Ek pal re mè baalak kee ye saaree umar ut̀aa lo
Aur doosre pal re mè màà ke maheene ḍaalo
Phir bhee màà kaa mamtaa vaalaa palraa jhuk jhuk jaataa
Zahar ke badle amrit detee mout ke badle jeenaa
Mùh se girate heere mot̀ee màà hai ek nageenaa
Jis naate ke aage dekho sharmaataa har naataa
Baalak jabahi chale beṛangaa màà kaa man berangaa
Ek nayan me jamunaa bahatee ek nayan mè gangaa
Chaaro dhaam kaa pal usa màà ke charaǹo me mil jaataa
So greatly unique and charming in the relationship of mother and child that on one side of life, there could be the whole world, and on the other side there is Ma.
At one time, we are in our mother’s womb and at another time we are put into the world. One can take the full weight of a child for one moment, but Ma bore the full weight throughout her pregnancy. Ma’s love will always be unbendable, unbreakable – our Mother’s love never wavers even if she becomes bent with age.
In exchange for poison, a mother gives nectar to her child, always ready to replace sickness or death with love and life. Her loving words are better than the best jewelry No other relationship can compare to that with a Mother.
When her child goes astray, Ma’s mind becomes worried. Her tears flow like the combined might of the Yanuma and Ganges Rivers from each eye. Homage to Ma’s feet is like taking a pilgrimage to the four holiest sites.”]1
Dwaarikaadheesh (1956)
- The four pilgrimage sites are Badrinath, Dwarka, Puri, and Rameswaram. These are four sites with Hindu significance dating back as follows Badrinath-Satyug, Rameshwaram – TretaYug, Dwarka – DwaparYug and Puri – Kalyug.
