Translation
I speak from my vision,You speak from your world library.
How can you and I
Ever see eye to eye
With each other?
You bury yourself
Day in, day out,
In the ocean-bed of books;
And I live in the core
Of my all-illumining
Vision-light.
I know, I know,
When we shall both close our eyes
For good,
You and I shall establish
Our oneness-perfection
In the world beyond.
Sri Chinmoy, Illumination-Song and Liberation-Dance, part 1, Agni Press, 1976
