Three Months Ago
Rajasthan ,
Shiv Shankar ko jisne puja,
Uska hi udhaar hua
Ant kaal mein Bhavsagar mein uska veda paar hua,
Shiv Shankar ko puja kro
Dhyan charno mein iske dharo,
Har Har Mahadev Shiv shambhu.
With this melodious tone the Aarti got end.
A girl turned back held a Aarti plate in her hand. She gave Aarti to allpersons. After gave the Aarti she kept the Aarti plate near the shivling and standing while her hand in posture of Namstay.

(The misery you are suffering now , the more misery have been suffering who gave you this pain. Just wait for a trip. Your Mahadev sent him only for you. Yes , you both will far away for short time but never will seprate from each other.)
