In the universal heart all hearts are one
In the universal heart all hearts are one, inseparable, I know.Yet knowing this I hurt the hearts of others
day and night.
We are all the slaves of fate;
It dances on our foreheads.
In peace sublime is the extinction-sleep of fate.
I know this secret.
O Jewel of my eye, pour into my heart Your golden Silence.
