Sri Aurobindo

This volume consists of all poems in English including sonnets, lyrical poems, narrative poems, and metrical experiments in various forms. All such poems published by Sri Aurobindo during his lifetime are included here, as well as poems found among his manuscripts after his passing. Sri Aurobindo worked on these poems over the course of seven decades. The first one was published in 1883 when he was ten; a number of poems were written or revised more than sixty years later, in the late 1940s.

Immortality

Know more >

I have drunk deep of God's own liberty
    From which an occult sovereignty derives:
    Hidden in an earthly garment that survives,
I am the worldless being vast and free.
A moment stamped with that supremacy
    Has rescued me from cosmic hooks and gyves;
    Abolishing death and time my nature lives
In the deep heart of immortality.

God's contract signed with Ignorance is torn;
    Time has become the Eternal's endless year,
        My soul's wide self of living infinite Space
Outlines its body luminous and unborn
    Behind the earth-robe; under the earth-mask grows clear
        The mould of an imperishable face.
