38 (from hindi songs of jnanadas)


WHERE WERE your songs, my bird, when you spent your nights in the nest?

        Was not all your pleasure stored therein?

        What makes you lose your heart to the skythe sky that is boundless?

 

Answer

While I rested within bounds I was content. But when I soared into vastness I found I could sing.
