III. 89. mor phakirwa mangi jay THE BEGGAR goes a-begging, but I could not even catch sight of Him: And what shall I beg of the Beggar? He gives without my asking. Kabir says: I am His own: now let that befall which may befall!
I WILL MEET one day the Life within me, the joy that hides in my life, though the days perplex my path with their idle dust. I have known it in glimpses, and its fitful breath has come upon me making my thoughts fragrant for a while. I will meet one day the Joy without me that dwells behind the screen of light-and will stand in the overflowing solitude where all things are seen as by their creator.
