He mor jiban nadiChalo tumi nirabadhi
Maha parabar pane
Amiyer sandhane
Mithile je taba trisha
Ghuchaibe pran nisha
O my life-boat
You always run and run
Towards the great ocean of the unknown
For Nectar-Delight.
The moment your thirst is quenched
My life of darkness will cease once and for all.
Sri Chinmoy, Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 4, Agni Press, New York, 1976
