By: Chayasi Sunthonphiphit Translated by: James N. Mosel and Burton Raffel

My mind glows, Knows no fear of the darkness and its tight web Though the stars blur, and the moon s dim rays Are sucked into nothingness, And the oneness of man still cannot be found;

Though the sky slits and crackles, Drops no gentle music, Though a rooster s hurried cackle jars my ears, And a frightened dog goes whimpering up and down.

This clear light inside me Pushes the wild, heavy night back: It will never flicker, it can never change, Neither pain nor sorrow can reach it.

The earth swings in circles: Soon, light must break through, dawn Hanging golden and clear over all the world, men Living like men.

In the lonely night I lie listening to my own heart, The darkness so thick I could lose my way Except for the faint, echoing chant Of the most precious words ever written

Words like drops from heaven Falling like wisdom, strength, peace, beauty, into My waiting heart, These two small hands will move as this mind leads Them, Will carry Buddha s divine law Here to this earth, until this heart no longer beats.
