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
Sur les grands sommets blancs, astre éteint et brisé, Seul dans l'immense nuit de son cœur désolé, L'érémite Amita, l'homme élu par les dieux, Leva son vaste front comme un ciel vers les cieux, Et austère il parla, triste, grave, immuable, L'homme divin vaincu au Peuple impérissable: "Ô vous que vos soleils brillants, purs et lointains Cachent dans les splendeurs, immortels et hautains, Ô fils de l'Infini, rois de la Lumière! Guerriers resplendissants de la lutte altière! Nation à la mort divinement rebelle, Vous qui brisez la loi de la nuit éternelle! Ô vous qui appelez à vos sommets ardus Les pantins de la terre, [ ]1 tribus!
La vaste Nuit parla aux infinis cachés, L'amante à ses amants terribles et voilés.
