Poems
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.
THEME/S
Soul, my soul, yet ascend crossing the marge of life: Mount out far above Time, reach to the golden end, Mind-belt's verge and the vague Infinite's spirit seas. Crossed by sails of the gods, luminous argosies, Silence reigns and the pure vastness of Self alone, Fulgent, shadowless, white, limitless, signless, one. God-light brooding above, spreading eternal wings, Free, held high above thought, void of the form of things, Live there lost in God space, rapturous, vacant, mute, Sun-bright, timeless, immense, single and absolute.
