Hang up the swing of love today!
Poet: Kabir
Hang up the swing of love today!
Hang the body and the mind between the arms of the beloved, in the ecstasy of love’s joy:
Bring the tearful streams of the rainy clouds to your eyes,
Hang up the swing of love today!
Hang the body and the mind between the arms of the beloved, in the ecstasy of love’s joy:
Bring the tearful streams of the rainy clouds to your eyes,
My native land is all lands,
In no particular direction.
My monastery is the solitary mountains,
In no particular place.
My family is all the beings of the six realms.
All poetry that touches the heart, and enlightens the mind is sacred poetry. The Sacred Poetry Project celebrates the universal healing force that arises when we engage with poetry that brings us closer to ourselves, and what we hold sacred.
