Tagore, Rabindranath, 1861-1941

"Songs of Kabir"


The body and the mind cannot contain themselves, when they are
touched by His great joy.
He is immersed in all consciousness, all joys, and all sorrows;
He has no beginning and no end;
He holds all within His bliss.

II. 81. satgur s?? day? kar d?nh?
It is the mercy of my true Guru that has made me to know the
unknown;
I have learned from Him how to walk without feet, to see without
eyes, to hear without ears, to drink without mouth, to fly
without wings;
I have brought my love and my meditation into the land where
there is no sun and moon, nor day and night.
Without eating, I have tasted of the sweetness of nectar; and
without water, I have quenched my thirst.
Where there is the response of delight, there is the fullness of
joy. Before whom can that joy be uttered?
Kab?r says: "The Guru is great beyond words, and great is the
good fortune of the disciple."

II. 85. nirgun ?ge sargun n?cai
Before the Unconditioned, the Conditioned dances: "Thou and I are
one!" this trumpet proclaims.
