The galloping blaze

 O' Blaze! you galloped at an alarming pace

I have just the feet to depend on running

I know lots about the woods as my home

But you burnt it down to ashes.

Deer runs in the backdrop of blazing fire

I can run at least a little far

But I can’t assure of the right direction

At last I may be entangled in the blaze

And just be at mercy of it.

I survive by the grass

I drink from the streams

I rest in the shades of the trees

But I am deprived of it now.

I did no harm

I said nothing

Nothing at all

But you had me blazed.

I shed thousands of tears

Just to see myself at no avail

But in the extreme heat and smoke

Ultimately to surrender my hope.

The blaze gallops as the horse in a race

I have not observed as yet even in a dream

What a terrible circumstance I witness now

But to forget all in a worry of getting burnt.  

May I pray this instant

Of to no avail and hope

That souls to be reborn

In the realm of western paradise!

OM MANI PADME HUNG! Please chant this mantra once and dedicate the merits to the lost souls of thousands in the recent fire.
