Paroles et traduction Christopher Tin - Sukla-Krsne

Sukla-Krsne

Sukla-krsne gati hy ete
Jagatah sasvate mate
Ekaya yaty anavrttim
Anyayavartate punah

Yatra kale tv anavrttim
Avrttim caiva yoginah
Prayata yanti tam kalam
Vaksyami bharatarsabha

Agnir jyotir ahah suklah
San-masa uttarayanam
Tatra prayata gacchanti
Brahma brahma-vido janah

Dhumo ratris tatha krishnah
San-masa daksinayanam
Tatra candramasam jyotir
Yogi prapya nivartate

Naite srti partha janan
Yogi muhyati kascana
Tasmat sarveshu kaleshu
Yoga-yukto bhavarjuna

Sukla-Krsne

White-Krishna are the courses
Of the ever-enduring world
One leads to no return,
The other returns again

When that time of no return
And also a return, the yogis
Having striven, reach that time,
I will declare, O Bharata

Fire, Light, Day, bright fortnight
The northern path of the sun
Striving, they go
To Brahman, the Brahman-knowers

Smoke, Night, as well as dark fortnight,
The southern path of the sun
Attaining lunar light,
The yogi turns back

Neither these paths knows
Any bewildered yogi,
Therefore at all times
Be steadfast in yoga, Arjuna
