Poems about gratitude by Sri Chinmoy
A gratitude-heart
Is to discover on earth
A Heaven-delivered rose.
Is to discover on earth
A Heaven-delivered rose.
Gratitude can transform
Our life
Sooner than anything else.
Our life
Sooner than anything else.
When gratitude survives
All disappointments,
Then it is real gratitude.
All disappointments,
Then it is real gratitude.
Gratitude
Is at once
Beautiful
And
Fruitful.
Is at once
Beautiful
And
Fruitful.
Gratitude carries the message of Immortality
And enters into God’s Heart
To see God’s universal Satisfaction-Smile.
And enters into God’s Heart
To see God’s universal Satisfaction-Smile.
Gratitude grows
By self-giving.
By self-giving.
When gratitude survives
All disappointments,
Then it is real gratitude.
All disappointments,
Then it is real gratitude.
Gratitude
Thrives
On humility.
Thrives
On humility.
Gratitude expressed,
Joy achieved.
Joy achieved.
Gratitude
Is nothing short of
A divine attitude.
Is nothing short of
A divine attitude.
In the life of aspiration and dedication
The gratitude-deer always runs the fastest,
Always achieves the most,
Always becomes the perfection-satisfaction
Of the highest
And
Most fulfilling and fulfilled
Supreme in us.
Gratitude is not a human achievement.
Gratitude is a divine treasure
Granted to us
By the inner Pilot within us,
The Absolute Supreme.
A desiring man
Never gets tired of offering his gratitude
To his own efforts.
An aspiring man
Never gets tired of offering his gratitude
To his own faith.
A surrendered seeker
Never gets tired of offering his gratitude
To his Lord divine.
The Lord Supreme
Never gets tired of offering His Gratitude
To His infinite Compassion.
Gratitude is not a mere word.
Gratitude is not an idea.
Gratitude is not even an ideal.
Gratitude is our heart’s
God-satisfaction-promise
To God Himself.
Gratitude is not an idea.
Gratitude is not even an ideal.
Gratitude is our heart’s
God-satisfaction-promise
To God Himself.
