Beneath my veil, I gathered moon, stars, and bloom,
Within my eyes, hope's lamps began to loom.
At the mere whisper of their name, my heart took flight,
My kohl bloomed, my garland surged with fragrant light.
The world deciphered secrets in my gaze, consumed,
Beneath my veil, I gathered moon, stars, and bloom,
Within my eyes, hope's lamps began to loom.
All love, they say, but none with such a fire,
When did I claim them, this I can't quite acquire.
My eyes forsook sleep, and dreams began to bloom,
Beneath my veil, I gathered moon, stars, and bloom.
