বইল বাতাস,
     পাল তবু না জোটে--
ঘাটের শানে
     নৌকো মাথা কোটে।

II.75. omkar siwae km sirjai
ALL THINGS are created by the Om;
The love-form is His body.
He is without form, without quality, without decay:
Seek thou union with Him!
But that formless God takes a thousand forms in the eyes of His creatures:
He is pure and indestructible,
His form is infinite and fathomless,
He dances in rapture, and waves of form arise from His dance.
The body and the mind cannot contain themselves, when they are touched by His great joy.
He is immersed in all consciousness, all joys, and all sorrows;
He has no beginning and no end;
He holds all within His bliss.

IF THERE is nothing but pain in loving
then why is this love?
What folly is this to claim her heart
because you have offered her your own!
With the desire burning in your blood
and madness glowing in your eyes
why is this circling of a desert?
He bankers for nothing in the world
who is in possession of himself;
the sweet air of the spring is for him,
the flowers, the bird songs;
but love comes like a devouring shadow
effacing the whole world,
eclipsing life and youth.
Then why seek this mist that darkens existence?
