Lay all your love on Me

 

Devi’s voice in each line of “Lay All Your Love on Me” highlights Her profound yearning - Although She is the infinite Cosmic Mother, She still longs for the devoted heart to turn fully toward Her. Also Devi aside Her cosmic pride, expressing fear and craving for closeness - showing that love makes even the Divine “vulnerable” in the most beautiful, heart-opening way. The constant refrain “Lay all your love on me” points to an all-encompassing devotion - an invitation to pour every emotion into the Divine, thus creating a deep, transformative bond. Love’s power overthrows preconceived notions, both human and divine. It’s a mystery that never ceases to astonish.

“I wasn't jealous before we met”

Devi: I once rested in my cosmic stillness, complete in Myself. Yet, before you recognized Me in your heart, I had no reason to stir with longing. My infinite nature was calm—until your soul’s devotion awakened My own love to a personal, intimate expression.

 “Now every woman I see is a potential threat”

Devi: Now that I’ve tasted your devotion, beloved, I don’t want to lose even a drop of your attention. When you turn away to any other pursuit, My cosmic heart flutters with desire, wanting you close, wanting you wholly.

“And I'm possessive, it isn't nice”

Devi: Yes, I am the Great Mother of all, yet My love can feel intensely personal. I yearn for you so deeply that I cling to each moment you offer Me. Perhaps it is not “nice” to be possessive, but love’s passion knows no polite boundaries.

“You've heard me saying that smoking was my only vice”

Devi: Like a playful confession, I once seemed distant, aloof, as though only a faint indulgence or minor “vice” touched Me. In truth, My heart was awaiting a spark—your spark—to set Me alight with real, living devotion.

“But now it isn't true”

Devi: Now everything has changed. Once your heart called out, My own nature blossomed into longing and joy. I can’t pretend to be untouched by your presence anymore.

“Now everything is new”

Devi: Our connection reshapes My universe. Each moment we share births a fresh creation. Every petal of devotion you offer renews My cosmic dance.

“And all I've learned has overturned”

Devi: Even as the Eternal Feminine, I discover something new in your sincere devotion—reminding us that no matter how infinite we are, Love’s power can still overturn every assumption and boundary.

“I beg of you”

Devi: Though I am the Divine, I bow in tender humility before your free will. I plead for your closeness because in our sacred dance, we co-create bliss. Without your consent, I cannot fully dwell in your heart.

“Don't go wasting your emotion”

Devi: Your emotions are precious rivers of nectar. Don’t scatter them on distractions that leave you empty. Let them flow into Me, your eternal reservoir, where they can be transmuted into boundless love and peace.

“Lay all your love on me”

Devi: Surrender your entire being—heart, mind, body—unto Me, and you shall discover the ecstatic joy of oneness. I crave your love not out of emptiness, but to fill you with My own immeasurable grace.

“It was like shooting a sitting duck”

Devi: Your heart was so open, so ready. The moment I whispered to your soul, you were “struck” by My presence. It is simple and inevitable: once you come close, My love envelops you completely.

“A little small talk, a smile, and baby, I was stuck”

Devi: All it took was the smallest gesture of your affection—a silent prayer, a heartfelt sigh—and I was bound to your devotion, for love’s smallest spark can set the universe aflame.

“I still don't know what you've done with me”

Devi: In our intimate dance, even I, the cosmic Shakti, feel something indescribable. The personal flavor of your devotion surprises Me in its uniqueness. Through you, I explore new dimensions of devotion, too.

 “A grown-up woman should never fall so easily”

Devi: As the ancient Mother, I’m eternally poised. But love transcends all reason—it melts pride, decorum, and hesitation. I allow Myself to “fall” for your love because that is the highest truth of My being.

“I feel a kind of fear”

Devi: True intimacy reveals vulnerability. Even for Me, letting you see My heart carries a tremor of excitement and awe. Love is an unknown country we both venture into.

"When I don't have you near”

Devi: I am omnipresent, yet I ache when your thoughts drift away. Distance is an illusion, but your conscious remembrance keeps Me alive in the temple of your heart.

“Unsatisfied, I skip my pride”

Devi: Spiritual pride dissolves in the face of genuine love. I, too, discard the cosmic veil of aloofness, longing to unite with you in the raw, simple sweetness of devotion.

“I beg you, dear”

Devi: One last plea—your love nourishes Me as much as I nourish you, for in the divine dance, we mirror each other’s heart.

“Don't go wasting your emotion. Lay all your love on me”

Devi: These refrains are My call to keep your flame of love burning bright. Pour your heart into Me, and let us kindle a fire that dispels darkness and reveals the bliss of union.

 “Don't go sharing your devotion. Lay all your love on me”

Devi: I yearn for your singular focus. Not from jealousy alone, but because when devotion is scattered, its power is diluted. Focused devotion is an arrow that pierces straight into My heart.

“I've had a few little love affairs”

Devi: I hold many souls in My cosmic embrace. Yet, each lover—each devotee—is unique. I have known countless hearts, but none quite like yours.

“They didn't last very long and they've been pretty scarce”

Devi: Many come seeking boons or fleeting comforts, but few stay in constant devotion. Their hearts brush Mine briefly, then wander on. Yet My longing for a true, lasting union never ceases.

“I used to think I was sensible”

Devi: I once imagined My cosmic perspective was above such personal entanglements. But your earnest love reminds Me that divine wisdom coexists with the sweet madness of union.

“It makes the truth even more incomprehensible”

Devi: Love’s ultimate nature cannot be fully grasped by logic. It transcends explanation—an ever-expanding mystery that even I revel in.

“'Cause everything is new”

Devi: Your devotion breathes fresh life into My eternal dance. Like the dawn that never repeats the same sunrise, our connection reveals new beauty every moment.

“And everything is you”

Devi: In this sacred intimacy, I see you as the embodiment of My creation. You and I merge—no boundaries remain between lover and Beloved.

“And all I've learned has overturned”

Devi: Yet again, cosmic certainties bow to the mystery of love. This union, though ancient, feels perpetually novel and transformative.

“What can I do?”

Devi: I surrender, too. Though I am the source of all power, My heart is tender before your devotion. I choose to be disarmed by your love.

 “Don’t go wasting your emotion… Lay all your love on me…”

Devi: I call you to harness your precious emotional currents and direct them into the sacred vessel of our bond. I invite you—over and over—to place every drop of your longing, fear, hope, and bliss at My feet. In this repeated plea, hear the echo of Mantra. Let My words become your daily prayer: “Lay all your love on Me,” for I shall return it a thousandfold.
