Editor

The poem chosen by Mentor Magazine is Sri Chinmoy’s translation of a poem which he wrote in Bengali at the age of thirteen. The poem appears here, followed by the Bengali transliteration and the music, also written by Sri Chinmoy. The Master considers this one of his most beautiful songs and one of his most significant poems.
