25. From the outer life

Bahir haite antar mukhe
Phiraye niyecho pran
Bare bare tumi apanar hate
Diyecho kripar dan

From the outer life
You have brought my heart
Back into its own home.
With Your own Hand,
Time and again,
Unconditionally You are granting me
Your Compassion-Boons.

Sri Chinmoy, I Know Not Why, Agni Press, New York, 1980
