Ganges-  A perennial river.  A pious river of spiritual quest

 Oh Mother Ganges…a lovely green showers

On earth flowing from the Serene Shiva’s head

Green like her perennial flows to bless the lands

Life becomes solved, bowing down to you

Oh Mother Ganges, you flow amidst the mighty

Himalayan and dense forests...bringing in a love

Of the waters, skies and lands all in one place

Creating a beautiful warmth amidst the cold waters

Oh Mother Ganges, your tributaries’ makes us pay tributes

To our forefathers, sitting quietly at your Ghats

There is no end to the beliefs we have in your love

For you give us life, give us faith and give us blessings

Oh Mother Ganges, you are source of life

As a sacred Lord Shiva’s endearing wife

You show us paths to take and those not to

Making us realize what is right and what is not

Oh Mother Ganges, you are not just another river

But the flow of our thoughts and all kind of deeds

You show us what life is and what death is

In its truest forms and all visible ways in your arms

Oh Mother Ganges,  we bow to you in reverence

We shed our tears and let the pasts go along your flow

We hug you tight and expect life to change for good

You show us light and let us go in the paths set right

Oh Mother Ganges, in your eternal existence of life

We are blessed to savor your warmth and love

Benefits in the form of health and blessings for wealth

You make our life’s truly blessed. Thank you Mother Ganges!
