19. Hope

Sweet is my hope.
Pure is the life of my hope.

With my sweet hope
    I try to reach the higher worlds.
With my pure hope
    I try to fathom my inner worlds.

    But alas,
In neither way do I succeed.
    I fail,
    I miserably fail.
Sri Chinmoy, Lord, receive this little undying cry, Aum Press, Santurce, Puerto Rico, 1975
