Tagore, Rabindranath, 1861-1941

"Songs of Kabir"

"

XLVIII

I. 107. calat mans? acal k?nh?
I have stilled my restless mind, and my heart is radiant: for in
Thatness I have seen beyond That-ness. In company I have seen
the Comrade Himself.
Living in bondage, I have set myself free: I have broken away
from the clutch of all narrowness.
Kab?r says: "I have attained the unattainable, and my heart is
coloured with the colour of love."

XLIX

I. 105. jo d?sai, so to hai n?h?n
That which you see is not: and for that which is, you have no
words.
Unless you see, you believe not: what is told you you cannot
accept.
He who is discerning knows by the word; and the ignorant stands
gaping.
Some contemplate the Formless, and others meditate on form: but
the wise man knows that Brahma is beyond both.
That beauty of His is not seen of the eye: that metre of His is
not heard of the ear.
Kab?r says: "He who has found both love and renunciation never
descends to death."

L

I. 126. mural? bajat akhand sad?ye
The flute of the Infinite is played without ceasing, and its
sound is love:
When love renounces all limits, it reaches truth.
