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.

Omnipresence

Know more >

He is in me, round me, facing everywhere.
    Self-walled in ego to exclude His right,
I stand upon its boundaries and stare
    Into the frontiers of the Infinite.

Each finite thing I see is a façade;
    From its windows looks at me the Illimitable.
In vain was my prison of separate body made;
    His occult presence burns in every cell.

He has become my substance and my breath;
    He is my anguish and my ecstasy.
My birth is His eternity's sign, my death
    A passage of His immortality.

My dumb abysses are His screened abode;
In my heart's chamber lives the unworshipped God.
