Today I vow, no kiss for your lips I'll steal,
But instead, I'll kiss the hands of the Divine,
The hands that crafted you, that made you real,
That fashioned you, and made your beauty shine.
Today I vow, no kiss for your lips I'll steal,
But instead, I'll kiss the hands of the Divine,
The hands that crafted you, that made you real,
That fashioned you, and made your beauty shine.
The stars' embrace, in your silken veil he spun,
The clouds' dark hues, in your kohl-lined eyes he drew,
Your bangles sing, like waves, their rhythms run,
The moon, a jeweled crown, upon your brow anew.
Is it the earth, or your shadow, that's at play?
Today I vow, no kiss for your lips I'll steal,
But instead, I'll kiss the hands of the Divine,
The hands that crafted you, that made you real,
That fashioned you, and made your beauty shine.
Ni Ni Sa Re Re Ma Ni Dha Mag
Re Ma Re Pa Dha Ni Dha Ma Pa
Ma Dha Ni Sa Re Ni Sa Pa Ni Dha Sa Ni Pa
Ma Pa Ni Dha Ma Re Sa Ni Sa Pa Ni Dha Ni Sa
From swaying boughs, he shaped your arms so fair,
From rose's heart, the sweetness of your mouth,
The clouds he wove within your raven hair,
And on your cheeks, earth's golden treasures south.
With what devotion did the Lord create?
Today I vow, no kiss for your lips I'll steal,
But instead, I'll kiss the hands of the Divine,
The hands that crafted you, that made you real,
That fashioned you, and made your beauty shine.
He must have smiled, when you took your form,
And seeing you, his joy began to gleam,
How did he grace you, weathering the storm,
Love for you, even for the Lord, did teem.
What a face of grace, what beauty I can see!
Today I vow, no kiss for your lips I'll steal,
But instead, I'll kiss the hands of the Divine,
The hands that crafted you, that made you real,
That fashioned you, and made your beauty shine.
