Now as we embark on another Year
A fresh year of hope... devoid of fear;
A year heralding a message herewith
In this Hindu year of Sarvajith!
Let’s ask then: What be the message we glean?
Yes, what indeed does Sarvajith mean?
A year spelling success without defeat ever
A year of victory in every endeavour!
Victory over ourselves in a manner wise
So our latent divinty we may realise;
This is no year for the weak and faint
Why, this is the year of the 'Star & Saint'!
For, this was the year that Thyagayyar was born,
The 'Sarvajith' in his music continues to live on!
Gudipadva, Yugaadhi or Vishu by name,
O’ it is New Year simple all the same!
An annual reminder to gratefully express
Our gratitude for any form of success;
With rangoli and mango leaves we do decorate,
In our homes, as with family we celebrate!
So let us pray that 'Sarvajith' to all may reach,
In our devotional offerings of song and speech.
