In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell,
In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell,
Though I tried, a thousand times, to hold it back,
Though I tried, a thousand times, it went there still,
In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell.
A magic, surely, resided in their eyes,
A magic, surely, resided in their eyes,
Upon whom it fell, it pierced their heart's core,
Upon whom it fell, it pierced their heart's core,
In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell.
From the eyes of the faithless, tears overflowed,
From the eyes of the faithless, tears overflowed,
A longing glance, accomplished a great deed,
A longing glance, accomplished a great deed,
In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell.
On their face, beauty held its own reflection,
On their face, beauty held its own reflection,
When they departed, the day and night lost their sheen,
When they departed, the day and night lost their sheen,
In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell.
Inform them, that Bisimilla is near death's door,
Inform them, that Bisimilla is near death's door,
They will surely come, if this news reaches them,
They will surely come, if this news reaches them,
In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell,
Though I tried, a thousand times, to hold it back,
Though I tried, a thousand times, it went there still,
In the gathering, again and again, my gaze fell.
