I love to study Sanskrit

It has sounds so exquisite

It seems to massage my mind

And help me totally unwind

Just reading or chanting it for an hour

Seems to draw out my mind’s hidden power

This is the best lesson I’ve ever had

About the beauty of this language, enough cannot be said

To me sanskrit feels like a language that’s alive

I love the precision with which the words arrive

Every sentence needs decoding

To decipher the exact meaning

As I play with Sanskrit sounds with my tongue

I hear melodies that are sweetly sung

And I savour each word and phrase

Their depth never ceases to amaze
