Subtle is the path of love!
by Kabir
Translated by Rabindranath Tagore (1915) · From Songs of Kabir, LV
Subtle is the path of love!
Therein there is no asking and no not-asking,
There one loses one's self at His feet,
There one is immersed in the joy of the seeking: plunged in the deeps of love as the fish in the water.
The lover is never slow in offering his head for his Lord's service.
Kabîr declares the secret of this love.
