Nay, Do Not Grieve
Author: Sarojini Naidu, 1879-1949 Hymnal: Singing the Living Tradition #192 (1993) Meter: 11.10.11.10 Hymnal Title: Singing the Living Tradition First Line: Nay, do not grieve though life be full of sadness Lyrics: 1 Nay, do not grieve though life be full of sadness,
dawn will not veil its splendor for your grief,
nor spring deny their bright appointed beauty
to lotus blossom and ashoka leaf.
2 Nay, do not pine though life be marred with trouble,
time will not pause or tarry on its way;
today that seems so long, so strange, so bitter,
will soon be some forgotten yesterday.
3 Nay, do not weep; new hopes, new dreams, new faces,
joy yet unspent of all the unborn years,
will prove your heart a traitor to its sorrow
and make your eyes unfaithful to their tears. Topics: Wisdom from the World's Religions Our Common Ground; Change; Grief and Loss; Sorrow Languages: English Tune Title: NAIDU
