शरणं शरणं

हे नव सृष्टि के नील कमल

हे सत्य सनातन के शतदल

हे परा वाक के भास्वर स्वर

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

तुम अनन्त विस्तार ज्ञान का

तुम्हीं स्त्रोत हो नव प्रकाश का

ह्रदय तुम्हीं करूणा अपार का 

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

नवल धवल ज्योति प्रकाश तुम

नव गति लय आनन्द रास तुम 

सृष्टि का नव गीत राग तुम

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

त्याग तपस्या अग्रदूत तुम

दिव्य कर्म युग-धर्म दूत तुम

जड़ चेतन का सूक्ष्म सूत्र तुम

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

गौरव तुम भारत माता का

मानवता के भाग्य विधाता

अतुलित शक्ति ज्ञान के दाता

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

करुणामय सुन्दर शांतिमय

सच्चिदानंद, हे लीलामय

हे पारब्रह्म प्रभु परमेश्वर

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

मीरा के ईश दिनेश प्रभु

जय श्री अरविन्द महान विभु

नाथों के नाथ सनाथ रिभु 

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

हे विश्वनाथ हे जगद्गुरु

हे योगेश्वर हे परम गुरु

संसार- सारथी दिव्य गुरु

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

कल्याण मनुज करने हेतु

युग की आशा, मानव हेतु

भूधरा स्वर्ग के तुम सेतु

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

अतिमानस के तुम तपो-व्रती

इस युग के हो अवतार यती 

सत्य शिल्पी सामर्थ धृति 

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

मानव का तुम भावी विकास

पृथ्वी का तुम अचूक विश्वास 

परम चेतना, पूर्ण प्रकाश

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

तुम ऋषि-कवि अतिमानस के

तुम मंत्र दृष्टा युग आगत के

सृष्टा तुम ही नव मानव के

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

तव चरणों में कण कण अर्पित

जीवन अर्पित हर क्षण अर्पित

मन प्राण हृदय तुझपर अर्पित

शरणं शरणं, शरणं शरणं।

 

Sharanam Sharanam

O lotus blue of the creation new

The thousand petalled lotus of Eternal Truth

The rhythmic splendor of the supreme Word

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

Knowledge extending infinitely art Thou

The very Source of the Light that is new

Thou art the heart of  Compassion boundless

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

The new and shadowless Light art Thou

The new steps and rhythm of the dance of bliss

The song and melody of the creation new

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

The supreme renunciate, austere foremost

The Worker Divine, herald of the Age

The subtle link of Matter and Spirit

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

The pride and glory of India art thou

The author divine of the human fate

The giver of measureless Wisdom and Strength

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

Full of Compassion, Peace, Beatitude

Sachchidanand, O Player Divine

Supreme Truth, O Lord Supreme

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

The Lord of Mirra, Light of all lights

Sri Aurobindo, victorious mighty and great

Lord of lords, Eternal, Immortal

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

O lord of the worlds, its eternal Guide

Lord of the Yogis, O Master Supreme

Driver of the soul, Master Divine.

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

To redeem the earth and human race

Thou comes’t for man, O hope of the Age

The bridge between the Heaven and Earth

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

The resolve austere of the Supermind

Thou art the incarnate Divine recluse.

The Strength Divine, sculpture of Truth

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

Thou art the future evolution of the race

Thou art the hope of earth and its faith

Supreme consciousness, Light supreme

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

The seer and poet of the Supramental life

The mantra revealer of the Age to arrive

Creator and builder of the Man Divine

Thou art my surrender and refuge.

 

Each particle surrenders at Thy Feet Divine

My life and each moment is Thine, only Thine

Mind and life and heart to Thee are given

Thou art my surrender and refuge.
