The Great Ones

Swamini Sharadapriyananda

Behold how the great behave!
The lovely rose spreads her fragrance,
Covering with leaves the pricking thorns.

Keeping to herself the queer scars.

Learn from the great, O pretty soul,

Keeping to yourself your sorrows and troubles,
The world has enough of trials and troubles,
Help, if you can, but add not to its pain!

Let's grow together!
