Translation
I know my days of sorrowWill come to an end.
I know my days of joy
Will come to an end.
Nothing is abiding here on earth.
O world, let everything go
That wants to go.
Let the things that have to be received
Be received with boundless joy here on earth.
Earth-possessions and creations, alas,
Will never follow us.
Sri Chinmoy, Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 2, Agni Press, 1976
