Pete Townshend - Parvardigar lyrics

Adopted from Meher Baba's universal prayer

O Parvardigar, the Preserver and Protector of all

Without beginning are you Lord without end

Non-dual, beyond compare, and none can measure You

Without color, expression, or form, nor attributes to lend

You are unlimited and none can pun your depth

Imperishable beyond conception by our minds

Noone can divide you, oh God you are eternal

None can see you but with eyes divine

You always were, You always are, and always will be

You are everywhere, in everything and beyond

In the firmament above and in the deep

On all the seven planes and farther on

And in all that's hidden to our eyes in all we see

Beyond the trinity of worlds and in them all

You can not be perceived or no one shall depend

O Parvardigar preserve protect us all

Without beginning are you Lord without end

You always were, You always are, and always will be

You are the Creator, the Lord of Lords

The knower of all minds and hearts

Omnipotent, omnipresent, from you we cower

You are Knowledge, Infinite Bliss, Infinite Power

You are the ocean of knowledge knowing all

Infinitely knowing, who can but tell

The knower of the past, the present and future

Crowning even this, your knowledge itself

Oh merciful benevolence eternal

You're the trinity of Knowledge, Truth and Bliss

You are the source of Truth, The One with infinite attributes

You are the ocean of love we sorely miss

You always were, You always are, and always will be

You are the Ancient One, the Highest of the High

You are Prabhu and Parameshwar

You are the Beyond God, Beyond-Beyond God ah

Parabrahma; Elahi and Allah

Yezdan; Ahuramazda and God the Beloved

O Parvardigar, the Preserver and Protector of all

Without beginning are you Lord without end

You are named Ezad, the only one worthy of worship

We sing the universal prayer to you Amen
