Translation
Will that day ever dawnWhen I shall feel honour in others’ honour,
I shall be proud in others’ glorious achievements?
Will that day ever dawn
When I shall cast a sorrowful glance
And be doomed to abysmal humiliation
And my ignorance ‘i’ will unreservedly be destroyed
By inconscience-life,
My inconscience ‘i’ will come out of inconscience-sea?
Will that day ever dawn when I shall feel
That in this vast world
I am not only for my little existence
But for all, born and yet unborn?
Sri Chinmoy, Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 3, Aum Press, 1976
