For me there is no other way
To reach my goal
Than to claim God secretly
And openly
As my own, very own.
Sri Chinmoy, Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 43, Agni Press, 1984
If You but knew, Father,
What I have done for You:
Planted and raised a climbing tree
For You to dance on its top, smiling free.
If You but knew, Father,
What I have done for You.
I have become the world's lowest slave
Your Breath to serve in man, the grave.
"If you but knew, child,
What I ever think of you.
You are My Life's revealing
Soul, You are My Vision's fulfilling Goal."
