Lav- Kush were children gifted
They learnt from their 'Guru' quickly
Their mother a fountainhead of knowledge
Gave them proper 'Sanskar' daily ||1||

Children asked different questions
Sita answered them with love strong
'Dharma', 'Karma' and 'BhramaGnyan' *
Mother explained through sweet song. ||2||

* Brahma Gnyan means the ultimate truth

Song 1 :

Essence of Life

Lav and Kush:
Oh! Mother Sita!
How did the Creator create this Universe?
And pray! How did He evolve nature?

Sita:
The first form of Lord 'Brahma' 1
Was pure Energy called "Om" 2
This Energy transformed by its own volition,
Into the most miraculous forms.

The millions of Stars, Moons and Planets
Are a proof of this miracle
This cosmos extends into space infinite
And also time eternal.

The Lord chose to plant
As seed His own energy
And blessed "Mother Earth"
At a dateless age,
To nourish and enrich
This wondrous nature.
Life, then, evolved
From stage to stage.

The glorious peak
Of evolution is Man,
As if Mother Earth has, at last,
Got her child 'Shravan' 3
Oh! "Atman" (Soul) takes this essence of life
And recognise your roots as the
"Paramatman"(God)!
