While traveling on the royal road
of the seven cities,
I met Krishna and his many gopis.
Before we arrived at Sahasrar,
one by one,
they became one.
Nagna says,
One by one,
they became bliss.
शाही सड़क पर यात्रा करते समय
सात शहरों में,
मैं कृष्ण और उनकी कई गोपियों से मिला।
इससे पहले कि हम सहस्रार पहुंचते,
एक एक करके,
वे एक हो गए।
नग्न कहते हैं,
एक एक करके,
वे आनंद बन गया।

Early morning light
has chased away
the night
and built a path
into the day.

He reads the trees
as you would read
a book,
but what he sees
at second look
he may not tell.
Still he knows
that in the end,
all is well.

Poet in the light of morning sun,
his battles have been lost and won,
and now he spends his days
counting the ways of his gratitude
in hero lays
or ragged verse,
or what is worse,
perhaps,
in silence.

He sees by the calm light of Ajñá
all things in their inner forms.
The haloed world regains its luster
and essences replace all norms.
