Til the deed is done

Til the deed is done | When darkness deepens strangling the earth's breast 
And man's corporeal mind is the only lamp, 
As a thief's in the night shall be the covert tread 
Of one who steps unseen into his house. 
A Voice ill-heard shall speak, the soul obey, 
A Power into mind's inner chamber steal, 
A charm and sweetness open life's closed doors 
And beauty conquer the resisting world, 
The Truth-Light capture Nature by surprise, 
A stealth of God compel the heart to bliss 
And earth grow unexpectedly divine. 
In Matter shall be lit the spirit's glow, 
In body and body kindled the sacred birth; 
Night shall awake to the anthem of the stars, 
The days become a happy pilgrim march, 
Our will a force of the Eternal's power, 
And thought the rays of a spiritual sun. 
A few shall see what none yet understands; 
God shall grow up while the wise men talk and sleep; 
For man shall not know the coming till its hour 
And belief shall be not till the work is done.
                 
                       Savitri
