Lalla - Just for a moment, flowers appear

I, Lalla: The Poems of Lal Ded   pdf

 Just for a moment, flowers appear
on the empty, nearly-spring tree.

Just for a second, wind
through the wild thicket thorns.

Self inside self, You are nothing but me.
Self inside self, I am only You.

What we are together

will never die.

The why and how of this?
What does it matter?



I Searched For My Self

I Searched For My Self
I searched for my Self
until I grew weary,
but no one, I know now,
reaches the hidden knowledge
by means of effort.
Then, absorbed in "Thou art This,"
I found the place of Wine.
There all the jars are filled,
but no one is left to drink.
