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.

I housed within my heart the life of things,
    All hearts athrob in the world I felt as mine;
I shared the joy that in creation sings
    And drank its sorrow like a poignant wine.

I have felt the anger in another's breast,
    All passions poured through my world-self their waves;
One love I shared in a million bosoms expressed.
    I am the beast man slays, the beast he saves.

I spread life's burning wings of rapture and pain;
    Black fire and gold fire strove towards one bliss:
I rose by them towards a supernal plane
    Of power and love and deathless ecstasies.

A deep spiritual calm no touch can sway
Upholds the mystery of this Passion-play.
