| WHAT WE DON'T SEE: a sonnet All that we see need not always be true. Of this we must ourselves always remind. The sky and sea are, from distance, so blue. But, go nigh them and no colour you find. The outward is often a sham, a mask, Worn so that what’s inside may be concealed. Before the outer fools us, we must ask: ‘Does this cloak have daggers yet unrevealed?’ What we don’t see may still, in fact, exist, But may be seen only by those gifted. Enroll in His true, selfless workers’ list; The veil from your eyes will then be lifted. By His grace the lame can, mountains, conquer. The dumb, too, can eloquent speech render. ' The last two lines have been translated from: "mook hoee vaachaal, Pangu chadhaee girivar gahan" [Famous lines in Ram Charit Maanas, a revered religious text of Hindus, written in Hindi language] M C Gupta 18 February 2006 |
