The sea is vast and the tear is small. But is it so? The tear is great and the sea is small. When the tear is the outcome and the essence of many a sea turned unto vapour by the agony of the heart for the beloved and when that vapor at the coolness of the image be held in his eyes everfresh turns unto a drop of water and collects in the eye – the tear is great and the sea is small.
After filling up the grave containing her living son with need for the sake of the society when a dame comes out and laughs as if in merriment and when a tear collects in her eyes which other take it due to merriment – that tear is great and the sea is small.
Being tortured mercilessly by attributed to a theft that was not committed by her, with needles driven deep into her fingernails, when a maiden bore the suffering with a smile and when a tear collected in her eyes when her tormentors found the real thief and asked her pardon – that tear is greater than the sea.
Seeing God tormented by men tear wells out in the innocent’s eye and that tear is greater than the sea.
Yeah ! The tear is great and the sea is small
