Poems on the Sun

by: Sri Chinmoy

The rising sun 
Blesses my mind
With joy.

The setting sun
Blesses my heart
With peace.

GOLDEN MYSTIC SUN  

The descending fire descends;
The ascending fire ascends.
The smile of Light
Watches their tasks divine  
From across the empty space
Where the hands of ether
Salute the golden mystic sun.

THE SUN    

The morning sun
Greets your accomplishment-life.
The evening sun  
Salutes your new hunger.
The inner sun
Perfects your life of deception,  
Guides your life of aspiration  
And  
Fulfils your life of abnegation
Through the power of love-devotion.

THE INNER SUN    

The rainbow comes and goes
With a charming body.
The outer sun comes and goes
With a vast body.
The inner sun stays and stays  
With its boundless
And deathless  
Love-light.
