580. ALTHOUGH I SPEAK
Although I speak    I am quite weak.
Although I play
    In God’s eternal day
    I am not quite strong.
Although I fly and fly
    My wings have almost given way.
    No fear,
    No tear.
I shall bravely dare
    My life-experiences to share
With all and sundry in stupendous glee.
Sri Chinmoy, A Soulful Cry Versus a Fruitful Smile, Agni Press, 1977
