The Golden Light



        Sri Aurobindo


                       Thy golden Light came down into my brain
                          And the grey rooms of mind sun-touched became
                       A bright reply to Wisdom’s occult plane,
                          A calm illumination and a flame.


                       Thy golden Light came down into my throat,
                          And all my speech is now a tune divine,
                       A paean song of Thee my single note;
                          My words are drunk with the Immortal’s wine.

                       Thy golden Light came down into my heart
                          Smiting my life with Thy eternity;
                       Now has it grown a temple where Thou art
                          And all its passions point towards only Thee.

                       Thy golden Light came down into my feet;
                       My earth is now Thy playfield and Thy seat.
