Treading on the twisted paths, I realized so lately,
I was blinded by the mist of revengefulness greatly.
My eyes were filled with anger and thirsty to avenge.
Corrupted, manipulated and solitary, I stood at junction of revenge.
But I stopped, I was halted by my heart to hear your wise words.
You guided me like the unknown force guides the migratory birds.
I cried after a long time, after so many years,
I confessed my disturbed feelings and my haunting fears.
I stood there like a pale statue staring the blood on my hand.
All this guilt struck me when time was slipped away like sand.
The tears of redemption washed my criminal face.
The feelings of guilt drove away my sinful thoughts with a fast pace.
I surrendered to you, the non-violent, peaceful sage.
I drowned myself in sea of peace and casted out my rage.
I chose the thorny path of nonviolence but still I carry my sword.
Now they call me 'The Redeeming Sage' as I walk down the road.
I still keep the sword, it's my mother's blessing.
She wanted me to protect each and every innocent being.
I surrendered my hatred to the power of her unconditional love,
I'm the old wise elephant with sharp tusks and not a fragile dove.
