My world will light its hundred different lamps with thy flame

summary
According to the poet, the actual deliverance or rescue is not in abandoning the world and its activities.
the poet feels the pleasure of deliverance is in a thousand bounds of delight. These thousand bounds of
delight are the various duties, which man has to discharge in this world for the true joy and delight lies in
discharging the duties, which have been assigned to the man in this world.
According to the poet, human life is like an earthen pot or tumbler which God fills up again and again
with the wine of different colors and tastes and not to drink this wine would be the height of ingratitude.
This scented and tasty wine are the various duties, which man has to discharge in each day of his life.
The poet wishes to express his devotion and gratitude to God by lightning a hundred lamps by His
inspiration on His altar. In other words, the poet wants to show his devotion and gratitude to God by
writing songs in His, praise under divine inspiration.
God has created this beautiful world for the joy and pleasure of man and it is man's duty to enjoy the
various pleasures with which God has blessed him in abundance. And a true devotee of God is he, who
enjoys the pleasure of senses because this sensuous delight is the expression of the pleasure that God
takes in the creation of the various objects of this world.
But this does not mean that the poet teaches a life of sensuous pleasure. Sensual delight should be
sublimated and spiritualized. All that is gross and ignoble in worldly pleasures should be transformed
into an expression of pure love. This transformation is possible only when a man uses all his powers and
abilities in the service of His fellow beings. The true joy lies in the service of Mankind.
