Darkness may hide the trees
and the flowers from the eyes
but it cannot hide
love from the soul.

When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as
the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.

True beauty is a ray
That springs from the sacred depths of the soul,
and illuminates the body, just as life
springs from the kernel of a stone and
gives colour and scent to a flower.

The feelings we live through
in love and in loneliness
are simply, for us,
what high tide
and low tide are to the sea.

Pity the nation whose statesman is a fox, whose philosopher is a juggler, and whose art is the art of patching and mimicking.
Pity the nation that welcomes its new ruler with trumpetings, and farewells him with hootings, only to welcome another ruler with trumpetings again.
Pity the nation whose sages are dumb with years and whose strong men are yet in the cradle.
Pity the nation divided into fragments, each fragment deeming itself a nation.

Verily the lust for comfort murders the passion of the soul, and then walks grinning in the funeral.

Would that I could gather your houses into my hand, and like a sower scatter them in forest and meadow.

Yet the timeless in you is aware of life's timelessness,

And knows that yesterday is but today's memory and tomorrow
is today's dream.

And that that which sings and contemplates in you is still dwelling
within the bounds of that first moment which scattered the stars into
space.

Who among you does not feel that his power to love is boundless?

And yet who does not feel that very love, though boundless,
encompassed within the centre of his being, and moving not from
love thought to love thought, nor from love deeds to other love deeds?

And is not time even as love is, undivided and paceless?

ketika cinta memanggilmu, maka dekatilah ia walau jalannya terjal berliku. ketika cinta memelukmu, maka dakapilah ia walau pedang di sela-sela sayapnya melukaimu.
