Poem
Light that Lights All Lights In the dim darkness of the night When the moon is draped with grey clouds, When no shining stars greet the sight And deafening noises are cowed, In the quietude of the night When only warm whispers of leaves Kissed by the breeze sprawl some delight And from worries we are relieved, If in the stillness of such night With faith we close our outer eyes, Get ourselves seated quite upright And scan the depth of inner ties, We may perceive some inner light That sparkles from the inner self-- A light that sheds a flame quite bright And wishes just to guide ourselves. It is spark of the inward light That guides man to the rightful path, Chases the dark gloom of the night And forestalls the taint of wrath. Even in the shine of the day Amidst hustle of the city When a vexing crowd swarms the way And the air around is sticky, If we set ourselves aside, From the mad bustle take a flight And we try to peer deep inside, We may sense the glow of a light; It is the light of faith quite bright That drives dull delusions away Restores one`s confidence upright And ignites one`s trust every day. Yet beyond the bounds of such lights Lies a greater light — effulgent, Brightest among the most-bright, Everlasting and transcendent. It is the light that lights all lights Illuminates the universe -- More radiant than the sunlight And has not eyed the pangs of birth. Let us hail such a divine light And with deepest faith make a plea That it ignites our inner light And from all evils set us free; Let us greet such a sublime light That steers us in our life`s voyage, Drives us to a realm ever bright Along our journey`s every phase.
