A poem by Sri Aurobindo
Now I have borne Thy presence and Thy light, Eternity assumes me and I am A vastness of tranquillity and flame, My heart a deep Atlantic of delight. My life is a moving moment of Thy might Carrying Thy vision's sacred oriflamme Inscribed with the white glory of Thy name In the unborn silence of the Infinite.
My body is a jar of radiant peace, The days a line across my timelessness, My mind is made a voiceless breadth of Thee, A lyre of muteness and a luminous sea; Yet in each cell I feel Thy fire embrace, A brazier of the seven ecstasies.
Part VII : Pondicherry (Circa 1927-1947) > Sonnets from Manuscripts (Circa 1934-1947)
