Poems on Compassion

 

Poems on compassion by Sri Chinmoy

Compassion, compassion.
My earth-compassion
Feeds my sacrifice-flames.
Compassion, compassion.
My Heaven-compassion
Feeds my satisfaction-sun.
Compassion, compassion.
My God-Compassion
Feeds my perfection-goal.

Is determined to end
Even the last vestige
Of human pride.

The domain of ignorance-night.

Only when compassion

Powerfully sweeps over
My heart.
