When you were not, nothing was,
Each bond, a winter's chilling pause.
Without you, emptiness did dwell,
A hollow ache, a silent hell.
When you appeared, my heart did sing,
"My kindred soul, you're everything!"
Tears welled, time stilled its flight,
My love was born, bathed in light.
Joyful, joyful, radiant, bright.
I'm woven to you, a Sufi's plea,
You, the divine, encompassing me.
I'm woven to you, a Sufi's plea,
You, the divine, encompassing me.
In prayer, I sought your grace,
In prostration, found your face.
God heard my prayers, my heart did bloom,
Joyful.
Remember those days, those memories,
Your vows, your words, the melodies?
Remember those days, those memories,
Your vows, your words, the melodies?
Let separation never be,
This is my plea, eternally.
Let no distance come between,
Tears welled, time stilled its sheen,
My love was born, radiant, bright.
Joyful, joyful, radiant, bright.
When you were not, nothing was,
Each bond, a winter's chilling pause.
Without you, emptiness did dwell,
A hollow ache, a silent hell.
When you appeared, my heart did sing,
"My kindred soul, you're everything!"
