Kali the Mother

The stars are blotted out
Clouds covering clouds,
It is darkness, vibrant, sonant.
In the roaring whirling wind
Are teh souls of a million lunatics,
Just loose from the prison house,
Wrenching tree by the roots,
Sweeping all from the path.
The sea has joined the fray,
And swirls up mountain-waves.
to reach the pitcy sky.
The flash of lurid light
Reveals on every side
A thousand, thousand shades
Of Death begrimed and black -
Scattering plagues and sorrows,
Dancing mad with joy,
Come, Mother, Come!

For Terror is thy name,
Death is Thy breath,
And every shaking step
Destroys a world for ever.
Thou "Time", the All-Destroyer!
Come, O Mother, Come!

Who dares misery love,
And hug the form of death,
Dance in destruction's dance
To him the Mother comes.

Vivekananda, Hymn to Mother Kali
