I will be posting here some of the selected poems of my favourite poet Rabindranath Tagore. These poems were actually written in Bengali and later translated in English. I guess by deciphering these poems you might get some a sort of idea about modern verses of eastern philosophy. Hope you will like them.
Despite misery, death and pain of the estranged heart,
Peace and bliss prevail, hopes galore.
Endless flow of life-stream, sparkling with smiling sun, moon and the stars,
Spring appear enchanting with vibrant colours.
Waves calm down as they rise again,
Flowers fall apart as they bloom again.
Never worn away, nor ceased, nor having slightest depression ever –
To that Completeness, my soul wishes to take refuge beneath.
