Poems about Suffering

Poems - Suffering


" The vast universal suffering feel as thine:
Thou must bear the sorrow that thou claimst to heal;
The day-bringer must walk in darkest night.
He who would save the world must share its pain.
If he knows not grief, how shall he find grief's cure? "

Sri Aurobindo

From: Savitri (1)
