In one salutation to thee, my God, <br />let all my senses spread out and touch this world at thy feet. <br /> <br />Like a rain-cloud of July <br />hung low with its burden of unshed showers <br />let all my mind bend down at thy door in one salutation to thee. <br /> <br />Let all my songs gather together their diverse strains into a single current <br />and flow to a sea of silence in one salutation to thee. <br /> <br />Like a flock of homesick cranes flying night and day <br />back to their mountain nests <br />let all my life take its voyage to its eternal home <br />in one salutation to thee. <br /><br /><br />Rabindranath Tagore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/salutation-2/
