Translation of a poem by Sri Makarand Dave




Nothing is lost

Nothing is lost:
Brother, as yet you have
Not seen the inner cup
Full and overflowing

All your agony is only due to desires,
The occult divisive forces frighten you,
As yet you've not cleansed the
Glass window of your mind,
The door of perception
Nothing is lost


The earth swings cheerfully in the space,
And you, why feel the burden on your back?
As yet you have not planted the seed;
Of your being in the earth
Nothing is lost

The nature bountifully scatters her all
Even then her basket is never empty
Only that heart gets thwarted which
Has n’t poured love everywhere,
Nothing is lost.
