lyrics
Vande Vande Sachidanandam
Vande Sachidanandam, Vande Vande…
Worship, worship (the One who is)
Being, Knowledge, Bliss
Bhogi laanchita yogi vaanchita
whom the worldly dismiss but the ascetics yearn for
Charamapadam, charamapadam
The highest goal, the highest goal
Vande Vande Sachidanandam
Vande Sachidanandam
Worship, worship (the One who is)
Being, Knowledge, Bliss
1. Parama puraana paraatparam, Parama…
The Supreme, Ancient, Higher than the high
Trisanga shuddham asanga buddham, Trisanga…
The Pure Threesome, Unrelated Wisdom
Durvedam
Hard to comprehend
Vande, Vande, Vande
Worship, worship, worship
2. Pitra savitra paramesham ajam, Pitra…
The Father, Impeller, Highest Lord
Bhava vraksha bijam abijam, Bhava…
The Unborn tree of being, Seedless Seed
Akhila kaaranam ikshana shrijana, Akhila…
The universal Cause, beholding creation,
Govindam
Tending over it
Vande, Vande, Vande
Worship, worship, worship
3. Anahata shabdam anantam, anantam, Anahata…
The Word unsounded, Infinite,
Prasuta purusha sumahaantam, Prasuta…
The Begotten Person, supremely great,
Pitra swarupa chinmaya rupa, Pitra…
The Substance of the Father, Form of knowledge
Sumukundam
Our Saving Friend
Vande, Vande, Vande
Worship, worship, worship
4. Sachidor melana saranam, saranam…
(The One who from) the union of Being and knowledge does flow, does flow
Shubha-shvasit-aa-nanda-ghanam, Shubha…
The Sacred Breath and Cloud of Joy,
Paavana-javana-vaanivadana, Paavana…
cleanses, moves swiftly, speaks the message
Jeevanandam
Life intends
Vande, Vande, Vande
Worship, worship, worship
