Prayer of “Reverend Lord our…”

पूजनीय प्रभो हमारे,
भाव उज्जवल कीजिये ।
छोड़ देवें छल कपट को,
मानसिक बल दीजिये ॥ १॥वेद की बोलें ऋचाएं,
सत्य को धारण करें ।
हर्ष में हो मग्न सारे,
शोक-सागर से तरें ॥ २॥

अश्व्मेधादिक रचायें,
यज्ञ पर-उपकार को ।
धर्मं- मर्यादा चलाकर,
लाभ दें संसार को ॥ ३॥

नित्य श्रद्धा-भक्ति से,
यज्ञादि हम करते रहें ।
रोग-पीड़ित विश्व के,
संताप सब हरतें रहें ॥ ४॥

भावना मिट जाये मन से,
पाप अत्याचार की ।
कामनाएं पूर्ण होवें,
यज्ञ से नर-नारि की ॥ ५॥

लाभकारी हो हवन,
हर जीवधारी के लिए ।
वायु जल सर्वत्र हों,
शुभ गंध को धारण किये ॥ ६॥

स्वार्थ-भाव मिटे हमारा,
प्रेम-पथ विस्तार हो ।
‘इदं न मम’ का सार्थक,
प्रत्येक में व्यवहार हो ॥ ७॥

प्रेमरस में मग्न होकर,
वंदना हम कर रहे ।
‘नाथ’ करुणारूप ! करुणा,
आपकी सब पर रहे ॥ ८॥
