Duality in life goes hand in hand,
Sorrow and happiness overshadow each other,
Duality in nature is the law supreme,
Dark nights always follow the bright sunny days.
The duality in love controls our emotions,
Loneliness is always overcome with a desire of unity,
In Separation sad songs reverberates from our hearts,
While in romance sweet imaginations imprison our hearts..
Where can you find an unconditional love?
Where can you find liberation in love?
Where can you discover your love growing day and night?
Where can you find solace that your love would not disappear from sight?
The duality also exists between a lover and God supreme,
When the lover and God are visioned in one love supreme,
Being shackled in this love overtakes all other dreams.
Sant Kabir wrote centuries ago,
'I will close my lover under my eyelids,
Neither any one would see my lover,
Nor I would be tempted to see someone else'.
