And, as the video film comes to an end, there are Priya Nath’s fingers dancing on the key-board of the piano as he plays to the accompaniment of claps from the devotees gathered in the room:Rukh se pardaa utthaale zaraa SaakiyaaLift up The Veil from Thy Face, O Divine Saki,The last paragraph of this ghazal touched the heart and soul:Ab ye deri ki soorat na aaye kabhiLet this long wait come never again, As Shri Nathji and Priya Nath sit silently in a pensive, meditative mood before the small group of assembled devotees, the video camera focuses on a little candle in the room while Shri Nathji’s ghazal rings out in the background:Ye shamaa jal rahi hai taake parvaane vahaan aayen,This Flame is burning so that the moths may gather around it,And, even as the words “THE END” come on the screen, there are the devotees singing along with Priya Nath in his recorded bhajan, the holy name of Shri Nathji the Eternal Bhola Nath:Jai Jai Shri Bhola Nath HareAll Glory unto Shri Bhola Nath,There is the scene showing Shri Nathji’s pictures on newspaper cuttings from all over India which had conveyed His Blessings to the whole of India in 1983.
