5242. A sleepless love for the world
O my eyes,I feel sorry for you
Because you cannot love the world
Without hoping to be loved in return.
O my heart,
I am so proud of you
Because you do not expect the world
To love you,
Although your life
Is a sleepless love for the world.
Sri Chinmoy, Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, part 53, Agni Press, 1983
