The Human Hymn

I am the Vedanta, I am the Bible,
I am the Quran, I am the God Cell.
I am the Torah, I am the Suttas,
I am the Hadith, I am Humanitas.

I am the Son, I am Jehovah,
I am the Qi, I am Bismillah.
I am the Vivek, I am the Ananda,
I am the Bodhi, I am the Sattva.

I am the Sat, I am the Shri,
I am Akaal, I am Brahmasmi.
I am the Prophet, I am Aminah,
I am the Mother, I am the Krishna.

I am the Beginning, I am the Anth,
I am the Journey, I am Ananth.
I am Creation, I am the Ravager,
I am Qayamat, I am the Creator.

The God Sonnet | Honor He Wrote

I gave you the tablets at Sinai,
I drove your chariot at Kurukshetra.
I gave you the ayats word by word,
I woke up Siddhartha 'n the carpenter.
No matter the time, age 'n technology,
I always rise to treat the common cold.
Amidst a world full of sore coldness,
I only need ten vessels absurdly bold.
I have nothing to do with perfection,
Far from it, I've got plenty to improve.
With each new vessel my sight broadens,
With each identity my existence renewed.
Keeper am I of this terrestrial neighborhood.
I am your innermost fire of god and good.

Dervish Advaitam Sonnet

Aham dharmam, aham daivam,
Aham qurban for bhoolokam.
Aham nyayam, aham shastram,
Aham the end of all divisionism.
Aham prakriti, aham pralayam,
Aham the seed of all causality.
I am life, I am death as well,
Life to love ‘n death to inhumanity.
To most people family is the world,
But to me the world is family.
Because I am accountable for all life,
I am the epitome of collectivity.
All that is civilized starts with me.
Aham brahmandam, aham brahmasmi.

(aham: I am, dharmam: duty, daivam: divinity, qurban: sacrificed, bhoolokam: kingdom of earth, nyayam: justice, shastram: gospel, prakriti: nature, pralayam: apocalypse, brahmandam: universe, brahmasmi: almighty)

Sonnet Shahada, 2345 – Abhijit Naskar, Kral Fakir: When Calls The Kainat



I switch cultures like clothes,
I switch sciences like pens.
I switch scriptures like tides,
I switch languages like seasons.

Service of humanity is supreme shahada,
to defend the persecuted is cosmic khalsa,
to treat neighbor as god is real dharma,
quiet kindness is the real karma.

Ana al-haqq, ana al-hub –
aham bindu, aham brahmanda.
I shed dogma like dead skin,
el cosmos es mi casa.

Naskarveda/Naskarverdad (Insan Chalisa, S.2489-2492) ― Abhijit Naskar, Sonnets From The Mountaintop



Jai Insan, Chetna Sagar;
Jai Vivek, Vidyut Ujagar.
Rise Insan, Ilaaj Ilahi;
Al Hub, Hayat Paygamber.

Ik Onkar, Satnam Shahada;
One Insan Bodhi Vihara.
Born of Ash, Deed Amartya;
Once Ignited, Ashiq Ananta.

Vision Virat, Vajra Avinashi;
Kafir Kareem to Vidyesh Vinashi.
Unbent Akhanda in Realm Divided,
Dervish Divaane, Advaita Ruhani.

No hero, no charlatan saint,
no prophet out to herd a flock;
unhinged in duty, an unflinching flame,
I’m just a signpost on the cosmic clock.

Viva el humano, la cura para locura;
la verdad valiente ante miedo-mentira.
Persona es puente, el puente es la verdad;
corazón, mi razón – cerebro, mi arma.

Ek Insan, aur Ek Hi Lakshya,
Atut Asambhav, Nischal Nimagna;
Karma is action without agenda,
Dharma is duty without saffronmania.

By Karma we become Visvaroop,
No Dharma in Vanarvibhajan;
Sapiens stands Merhem-e Manavta,
Ananta knows no foreign-sanatan.

Ek Insan, Hoonkar-e Asmaan,
Khalsa in Veins, Noor-e Nadaan;
no togetherness, no tomorrow –
Awake, Arise, O Christly Insan.

Time is togetherness, time is memory;
benevolence before blood, life makes family.
What good is ape tradition and validation,
when time is my home, integration, my reality!

Monkeys pray monkeys to save them,
in danger human stands guard of humans;
when minister monkeys legislate lies as law,
it’s your cosmic duty to be Insan Armageddon!
