Akishige Matsumoto

```

Akishige Matsumoto,

Ceaseless aspiration-fire you are.

In you Japan has discovered

Benevolence-fulness unparalleled

That sleeplessly shines

In your life's meditation-light.

O flower-blossomed heart of Japan,

India has flung open

her heart's door to you

And is beckoning

Your aspiration-peace-flooded eyes

And offering her soul's oneness-love. ```
