Oh Naaga! A true superhero!
Why has no one sung your glory?
Is it fear? Is it ignorance?
Is it your venom?
Is it your fury?!
You are all energy.
All alertness.
All steadiness.
All speed.
All strength.
All beauty.
All danger.
All fury.
Some call you evil. Show you as the devil.
But for us you are truly a god.
No less.
No wonder you are Vishnu's bed.
No wonder you sport around Shiva's head.
Ganesha ties you round his middle.
Kumara holds you just to twiddle.
The Earth is happy to spin on your head.
You awaken in my spine,
Illumine my head.
Now I begin to see your beauty.
To know you better is my duty.
When I know your story
I will think less
Of your venom and fury
And more about your glory.
हरिः ॐ तत् सत्
