Notes

My Existence said to me,

'The tongue is so vulgar-

day and night it chatters untiring.

Is there any way to silence it? '

I said, 'Why, keep a pebble into your mouth.'

After few days, the Existence once again said to me,

'The tongue has been silent. Now is there

any way to silence the heart? '

I said to him, 'Alas!

Nothing but death can silence a heart ever.'
