This madness is ecstasy,
If path is so wondrous,
I wonder how will be the destiny,
If poison is so sweet,
I wonder how will be the nectar.

This madness is ecstasy,
If dying is so delighting,
I wonder how will be the eternity,
If ignorance is so revealing,
I wonder how will be the enlightenment.

This madness is ecstasy,
If bondage is so releasing,
I wonder how will be the freedom,
If remembering is so intoxicating,
I wonder how will be the uniting.

This madness is ecstasy,
If silence is so enigmatic,
I wonder how will be the singing,
If stilling is so enthralling,
I wonder how will be the dancing.
~Sw. Chidananda Tirtha
