We do not stray out of all words into the ever silent; We do not raise our hands to the void for things beyond hope. - Gardener (16) [Hope] Please is frail like a dewdrop, while it laughs it dies. But sorrow is strong and abiding. Let sorrowful love wake in your eyes. - Gardener (27) [Pleasure] My heart, the bird of the wilderness, has found its sky in your eyes. - Gardener (31) [Heart] Ah me, why did they build my house by the road to the market town? - Gardener (4) [Hospitality] Let your life lightly dance on the edges of Time like dew on the tip of a leaf. - Gardener (45) [Life] To the guests that must go, bid God's speed and brush away all traces of their steps. - Gardener (45) [Guests] . . . The wise man warns me that life is but a dewdrop on the lotus leaf. - Gardener (46) [Life] I am restless. I am athirst for faraway things. My soul goes out in a longing to touch the skirt of the dim distance. O Great Beyond, O the keen call of thy flute! I forget, I ever forget, that I have no wings to fly, that I am bound in this spot evermore. - Gardener (5) [Immortality] O Woman, you are not merely the handiwork of God, but also of men; these are ever endowing you with beauty from their own hearts. . . . You are one-half woman and one-half dream. - Gardener (59) [Women] In the world's audience hall, the simple blade of grass sits on the same carpet with the sunbeams, and the stars of midnight. - Gardener (74) [Nature] My debts are large, my failures great, my shame secret and heavy; yet I come to ask for my good, I quake in fear lest my prayer be granted. - Gitanjali (28) [Prayer] I thought that my invincible power would hold the world captive, leaving me in a freedom undisturbed. Thus night and day I worked at the chain with huge fires and cruel hard strokes. When at last the work was done and the links were complete and unbreakable, I found that it held me in its grip. - Gitanjali (31) [Power] When old words die out on the tongue, new melodies break forth from the heart; and where the old tracks are lost, new country is revealed with its wonders. - Gitanjali (37) [Progress] The smile that flickers on baby's lips when he sleeps--does anybody know where it was born? Yes, there is a rumor that a young pale beam of a crescent moon touched the edge of a vanishing autumn cloud, and there the smile was first born in the dream of a dew-washed morning. - Gitanjali (61) [Smiles] In this playhouse of infinite forms I have had my play, and here have I caught sight of him that is formless. - Gitanjali (96) [World] God, the Great Giver, can open the whole universe to our gaze in the narrow space of a single land. - Jivan-smitri [God]
