SONGS OF THE SOUL


This day,
O Blazing, Furious Flame,
O Blinding Ray,
Thy focussed power’s aglow: Thy Name
Spreads everywhere
To dark’st abysmal lair.
Thou, gilded with a crown of stars,
And wielding mace of sovereign power,
Thou whirlest forth, O Burning Phoebus,
Thy evolution’s circling discus.
Immortal Brahma, all Supreme,
Thou Cosmic Shelter, Wisdom’s Theme,
Eternal [1]Dharma’s guardian true,
Thou diest not I ever knew!

O Birthless, Fleshless, Deathless One,
Unseen, thy endless, working arms,
Thy Ever-Watching Eyes!
The suns and moons and staring skies,
Thy Selfborn Lustre shields from harm,
And the distant creation warms,
O Sovereign Soul, this earth and gods’
