Like A Furious Serpent Poem by Gajanan Mishra

This world is
Just like a furious serpent
And here in this world
You are the only snake-charmer.

O my dear, You have given protection
To the cows, the defenseless creatures
Like women, priestly class, old men and children
As You considered them as Your own body.

My dear, I am a Brahmin and worshiping You
Always day and night, see, I am
Innocent and ignorant and from everywhere
All are coming to wards me and torturing me.

O my dear, You are the only person
Who can keep me in protection.
