|<poem> | |||
Ámi ye rúper padme karechi arúp madhu pán, | |||
Duhkher bakśer májhe ánander peyechi sandhán, | |||
Ananta maoner váńii shunechi antare, | |||
Dekhechi jyotir path shunyamaya ándhár prántare. | |||
Nahi ámi vidhir brhat parihás, | |||
Asim aeshvarya niye racita mahat sarvanásh. | |||
</poem> | |||
|<poem> | |||
In the lotus of forms, I have tasted the sweetness of the Formless One, | |||
In the bosom of sorrow, I have found bliss, | |||
Inside my heart I have heard the voice of infinite silence, | |||
In the blinding darkness of the void, I have seen the path of light. | |||
I am not simply a great joke of fate, | |||
Was I created from boundless wealth, merely for annihilation? | |||
