Aurobindo 167 Savitri Book 11
' A marvellous sun looked down from ecstasy's skies'
Capturing his secret heart-beats of delight.'
'God's everlasting day surrounded her, '
'Infinity's finite fronts she lived in, new
For ever to an everliving sight.'
'Twilight and mist were exiles from that air,
Night was impossible to such radiant heavens.'
A life divine winning over Death to deathless...
'Of all the beauty and the marvel here,
Of all Time's intricate variety
Eternity was the substance and the source; '
A Truth only to be felt and realised...
'Thought's wings climbed up towards heaven's vast repose
Lost in blue deeps of immortality.
A changed earth-nature felt the breath of peace.'
'All thrilled with the immanence of one divine.'
'Ecstatic voices smote at hearing's chords,
Each movement found a music all its own;
'Songs thrilled of birds upon unfading boughs
The colours of whose plumage had been caught
From the rainbow of imagination's wings.
Immortal fragrance packed the quivering breeze.'
Oh, what a wonderful spec with word-beauty..
'She saw all Nature marvellous without fault.'
'The mighty signs of which earth fears the stress,
Trembling because she cannot understand,
And must keep obscure in forms strange and sublime,
Were here the first lexicon of an infinite mind
Translating the language of eternal bliss.'
'The heart was a torch lit from infinity'....
............My consciousness this moment,
O'Guru, I'm in awe....in invincible heights
Ineffable Thee embellishing poetic creation
My inquisitive apprehension, erring Thee may opine
May thereso, let Savitri in my self arise
Aroused thereso be knowledge and fortune
