"Nineteen Thirty-One"

In April 2006, Sri Chinmoy honoured a large audience as part of his “Lifting Up The World With A Oneness-Heart” program. The guests were all born in the same year as Sri Chinmoy: 1931. As part of the celebration, Sri Chinmoy composed a song, which was performed by the Sri Chinmoy International Choir, followed by an arrangement for the choir by Prachar Stegemann.

“Nineteen Thirty-One, Nineteen Thirty-One!
My Heaven-days were done.
Nineteen Thirty-One, Nineteen Thirty-One!
My earth-life I came to embrace.
Nineteen Thirty-One, Nineteen Thirty-One!
My breath became God’s Fountain-Grace.
Nineteen Thirty-One, Nineteen Thirty-One!
God’s Victory-Garland I won,
I won, indeed, I won, I won!
Nineteen Thirty-One, Nineteen Thirty-One!”
-Sri Chinmoy
