Almond blossom, sent to teach us That the spring days soon will reach us.
Then, O King! the God, so saying,
Stood, to Pritha's Son displaying
All the splendour, wonder, dread
Of His vast Almighty-head.
Out of countless eyes beholding,
Out of countless mouths commanding,
Countless mystic forms enfolding
In one Form: supremely standing
Countless radiant glories wearing,
Countless heavenly weapons bearing,
Crowned with garlands of star-clusters,
Robed in garb of woven lustres,
Breathing from His perfect Presence
Breaths of every subtle essence
Of all heavenly odours; shedding
Blinding brilliance; overspreading-
Boundless, beautiful- all spaces
With His all-regarding faces;
So He showed! If there should rise
Suddenly within the skies
Sunburst of a thousand suns
Flooding earth with beams undeemed-of,
Then might be that Holy One's
Majesty and radiance dreamed of!
The foolish ofttimes teach the wise: I strain too much this string of life, belike, Meaning to make such music as shall save. Mine eyes are dim now that they see the truth, My strength is waned now that my need is most; Would that I had such help as man must have, For I shall die, whose life was all men's hope.
Sweetest smile is made saddest tear-drop!
Don't poets know it
Better than others?
God can't be always everywhere: and, so,
Invented Mothers
Shall any gazer see with mortal eyes,
Or any searcher know by mortal mind,
Veil after veil will lift
but there must be
Veil upon veil behind.
One can be a soldier without dying and a lover without sighing.
We are the voices of the wandering wind,
Which moan for rest and rest can never find;
Lo! as the wind is so is mortal life,
A moan, a sigh, a sob, a storm, a strife.
Within yourself deliverance must be searched for, because each man makes his own prison.
There is no caste in blood.
Sleep - death without dying - living, but not life.
Like a plank of driftwood Tossed on the watery main, Another plank encountered, Meets, touches, parts again; So tossed, and drifting ever, On life's unresting sea, Men meet, and greet, and sever, Parting eternally.
Pity and need Make all flesh kin. There in no caste in blood.
Early violets blue and white Dying for their love of light.
Ye suffer from yourselves. None else compels,
None other holds you that ye live and die,
And whirl upon the wheel, and hug and kiss
Its spokes of agony,
Its tire of tears, its nave of nothingness.
Never the spirit was born; the spirit shall cease to be never; Never was time it was not; End and Beginning are dreams! Birth-less and deathless and changeless remaineth the spirit forever. Death hath not touched it all, dead though the house of it seems!
Yet who shall shut out Fate?
For death, Now I know, is that first breath Which our souls draw when we enter Life, which is of all life center.
No power on earth compares to a mother's tender prayers.
Who doth right deeds Is twice born, and who doeth ill deeds vile.
