Jiddu Kishnamurti - Wanderer

I have been a wanderer long
In this world of transient things.

I have known the passing pleasures thereof.
As the rainbow is beautiful
But soon vanishes into nothingness,
So have I known,
From the very foundation of the world,
The passing away of all things
Beautiful, joyous and pleasurable.

As the moon is full and serene,
In the day of harvest
So am I
In the day of my Liberation
Simple as the tender leaf am I
For in me are many winters and many springs.
As the dew drop is of the sea,
So am I born
In the ocean of my Liberation.

As the mysterious river
Enters the open seas,
So have I entered
Into the world of Liberation
This is the end I have known.
