I came to You, my Lord Supreme,
In my silver silence-dream.You came to me with Your Sweetness-Face
And Oneness-Fulness-Embrace. ```Never say no,
Never say no,O never say,
When God’s Compassion-EyeDesires you to play.
```God's Fondness-Heart
Soulfully I shall become today.Quickly I ended
My proud, self-styled darkness-play. ```If you can rekindle
Your aspiration-flame,God will immediately
Take away the blame. ```Faith: use it to fly
In God’s own Sky.Faith: lose it to be
Your life’s orphan-cry. ```Ambition, ambition, ambition,
O dark abyss of frustration. ```O world of ingratitude,
O world of ‘I’-ness-darkness,Forget not, forget not,
The Lord is still all Forgiveness. ```Only a heart of gratitude
Can and shall own beatitude. ```O, try to be God’s surrender-toy.
He will open the petals of joy. ```Keep always open
Your heart’s possibility-room.God-manifestation
Therein shall bloom. ```During your great
Heavenward tripMaintain your life’s
And soul’s friendship. ```God has written
His Perfection-Book for man.Not to read the book
Is man’s secret plan. ```Aspiration, aspiration, aspiration,
My heart is crying, my breath is sinking,Do take my life to Liberation.
```Never to try
Will make you fail.Ever to smile
Will make you sail. ```Heaven and earth
Are in oneness-embrace.One life, one heart,
God-Beauty’s Perfection-race. ```When your mind’s doubt-thorns
Knock most powerfully,Keep your heart’s faith-flower
Unavailable immediately. ```I read my eyes and not my palm.
I love my heart and not my mind.I see within and not without.
Ignorance-seeds ever fail to sprout. ```Receptivity soulfully receives
God the eternal Lover.Spontaneity sleeplessly reveals
God the immortal Knower. ```I shall fulfil, I shall fulfil
My Lord Supreme.My heart shall be His sweet and fond
Sun-Oneness-Dream. ```My insecurity-thief my soul has caught
With its confidence-light.Now is the time for me to bravely reach
Heaven’s long-forgotten height. ```My little, brittle heart
For You, my Supreme Lord.O, save my death-captured life
With Your Oneness-Chord. ```My sleeping body has sprung to life.
No doubts have I, no fears.Delight within, delight without,
My heart’s gratitude-tears. ```The remains of stark frustration
Make dear friends with destruction. ```O my aspiration-heart of beauty,
Through you my inner PilotFulfils His Duty.
```My sleepless, God-hungry heart
Never knows depression-dart. ```O marvel-producing
Fulness-faith-mind,Yours is the duty
To transform the blind. ```I love Your Eye
Because it feeds my life.I love Your Feet
Because they smash my knife. ```Your thread of aspiration
Spun through timeShall lead you to
The perfection-clime. ```You are your life’s
Lip-deep sincerity.God is His Heart’s
Compassion-Infinity. ```Read not the calendar
Of life’s teeming mistakes.Oh, swim, only swim,
In life’s aspiration-lakes. ```The great news
Of your heart’s aspiration-cryHelps me, my life,
Cheerfully, bravely fly. ```You will lose track of your
Beloved SupremeIf you do not become
Your life's glowing dream. ```The concentration
That defies descriptionCan give your life
Complete satisfaction. ```Trust not the cobweb-mind of confusion
To grant you your soul-illumination. ```Touch God’s Heaven-Feet,
O please, O please.Immune they are
To doubt-disease. ```Progress, progress, progress,
Self-discovery process. ```My present friendship
With my soul’s heightIs the pioneer
Of my future delight. ```To fill my life’s
Long progress-hall,I must become
A surrendered ball. ```You want to know, my friend,
My present situation?My friend,
I am my ego’s self-infatuation. ```O my doubting mind,
O my suspecting mind,You are a student on the campus
Of confusion and destruction-night.Blind you are, deaf you are, plus and plus.
```I shall favour my Lord
With my surrender-flame,And go beyond the mud and dirt
Of name and fame. ```My Lord, tell me
Your absolute Secret.Do You ever
Have any sad regret? ```O, make my weak heart strong
To sing Your Oneness-Song. ```My Lord gives me
His Compassion-Eye-Lift.I give my Lord
My gratitude-heart-gift. ```From:Sri Chinmoy,Silence Speaks Songbook, Manifestation-Glow, 1993
