Silence, unmoved and rising
by SivavakkiyarEnglish version by Kamil V. Zvelebil
Original Language Tamil
Silence, unmoved and rising,
Silence, unmoved and sheltering,
Silence, unmoved and permanent,
Silence, unmoved and brilliant,
Silence, broad and immense like the Ganga,
Silence, unmoved and increasing,
Silence, white and shining like the Moon,
Silence, the Essence of Siva.
-- from The Poets of the Powers: Freedom, Magic, and Renewal, Translated by Kamil V. Zvelebil |
