INQUIRING, tireless, seeking that yet unfound,I, a child, very old, over waves, toward the house of maternity, the land of migrations, look afar,Look off the shores of my Western Sea—having arrived at last where I am—the circle almost circled;For coming westward from Hindustan, from the vales of Kashmere,From Asia—from the north—from the God, the sage, and the hero,From the south—from the flowery peninsulas, and the spice islands,Now I face the old home again—looking over to it, joyous, as after long travel, growth, and sleep;But where is what I started for, so long ago?And why is it yet unfound?
