From the beginning of my life
I have been looking for your face
but today I have seen itToday I have seen
the charm, the beauty,
the unfathomable grace
of the face
that I was looking forToday I have found you
and those who laughed
and scorned me yesterday
are sorry that they were not looking
as I didI am bewildered by the magnificence
of your beauty
and wish to see you
with a hundred eyesMy heart has burned with passion
and has searched forever
for this wondrous beauty
that I now beholdI am ashamed
to call this love human
and afraid of God
to call it divineYour fragrant breath
like the morning breeze
has come to the stillness of the garden
You have breathed new life into me
I have become your sunshine
and also your shadowMy soul is screaming in ecstasy
Every fiber of my being
is in love with youYour effulgence
has lit a fire in my heart
for me
the earth and skyMy arrow of love
has arrived at the target
I am in the house of mercy
and my heart
is a place of prayer
