1. WHEN I SEE DEATH'S HAND

When I see Death’s hand
  On your face,
My heart just breaks.
How I wish you could stay
    On earth
A few more good and God-years!

When I see Death’s hand
  On your heart,
My heart just breaks.
I blame, I blame God
Because He has not granted you
Even an immortal human birth.
Sri Chinmoy, The Golden Boat, Part 9, Vishma Press, New York, 1974
