Long ago thou stepped into earthly life, For peace and happiness instances thou set But were crucified to death It couldn't overcome thy message.
Thou invisible today To me or like me thy people are But ever living to the truth seeker It's the experience of reality.
A lot of disciples you had, You have And you will have For, men on earth you loved.
To make the wrong to the right, Greatman, prophet or incarnation, In the world have been born They are the images of Almightly.
That thou preached its Christianity But the people of other religions Speak of you, praise of your well doings This' thy glory.
Chaos and confusion are present days From man to man, class to class, nation to nation Oh, great soul, looking for your miraculous action That could lead us to a new age.
To me, thou-one of god's incarnations The world people recollect thee today. My heartiest tributes to you today For it's thy birthday celebrations
