Sri Chinmoy Ghose Poems

In the last dark hour
Of the night,
Angels come to love us
And awaken us.
...

I sing because You sing,
I smile because You smile.
Because You play on the flute
I have become Your flute.
...

Hope abides; therefore I abide.
Countless frustrations have not cowed me.
I am still alive, vibrant with life.
...

I fear
The heavy weight of a fleeting second
When I think of
My ignorance-body.
...

Nothing can be more important
In my life
Than to lose myself
In God's Compassion-Eye.
...

No more my heart shall sob or grieve.
My days and nights dissolve in God's own Light.
Above the toil of life my soul
Is a Bird of Fire winging the Infinite.
...

Sailing the boat of silver light,
The moon-beauty is fast approaching me.
The sky is vibrating with sweet and melodious songs.
...

Father, I have seen.
'No.'
Father, I have known.
'No.'
...

My younger self, ego,
Tells me that I can be happy
By being separated from the oneness-soul.
...

In the animal life
Competition is indispensable.
Here the struggle for existence, itself,
Is a constant battle.
...
