48. Bliss

```

A child is blissful

When he hears

A thunderous noise

Or

When he himself creates

A thunderous noise.

An old man is blissful

When the desire-life drops

From his earthly existence.

A seeker is blissful

Only when he knows

That God has made him

His devoted and surrendered smile. ```
