सुस्वागतम् Welcome to His Holiness Sri Satya Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi Swamigal - Kamakoti Mutt, Kanchi

Welcome to Kanchi Mutt
Brilliant and austere, yet
So young, sagacious, bright
Scaling now greater height
Expert in Vedas four
And dharma sastras core
Leaving family now
Takes the Sanyasa vow
As a life-long mission
With great social vision
To protect dharma here
Well without any fear
Gives up all for a cause
Goes on without a pause
Kamakshi Amman’s grace
Blessing for human race
Guru-Sishya bondage
Proved in this modern age
A deep heart-touching scene
Nowhere earlier seen
Vedic rituals all
Timely clarion call
So sacred without flaw
Instils feelings of awe
Festivals all over
For inner changeover
Fulfilment in all minds
True happiness one finds
Dharma triumphs always
All perfect, no sideways.
