Counting stars, the night descends,
When longing eyes for vision lend.
Counting stars, the night's embrace,
When eyes yearn for a lover's face.
Amidst the crowd, a solitude,
Memories' feast, a heart subdued.
Only peace of the beloved, only love's sweet art,
This is the craving of this life's beating heart.
Only peace of the beloved, only love's sweet art,
This is the craving of this life's beating heart.
Love's dance, a fool's decree,
Without rhythm, wild and free.
Love's perfection, Love's decree,
Whose body feels love's ecstasy.
Love's perfection, Love's decree,
Whose body feels love's ecstasy.
From eyes it drinks, yet death it flees,
Intoxication's hold decrees.
Lost to self, a gaze so deep,
Through mirrors, the beloved, to keep.
Through mirrors, the beloved, to keep.
Beloved appears, beloved appears, beloved appears.
It comprehends not, though explained,
Logic's grasp it has disdained.
What thirst is this, can someone tell?
A thirst no ocean can quell.
Only hope of love, a thirst so deep,
Life's beloved near, life's beloved to keep.
Only hope of love, a thirst so deep,
Life's beloved near, life's beloved to keep.
Love's dagger, no shield can hold,
Love's perfection, Love's decree,
Whose body feels love's ecstasy.
Love's perfection, Love's decree,
Whose body feels love's ecstasy.
From bodies, flames begin,
To the soul, they then win.
Worship of the beloved, devotion's art,
To the beloved, bows the heart.
It makes all lovers, it's decree,
No one writes love's history.
Who loses all, in this they thrive,
What game is this, I can't derive.
Emotions' beloved, thoughts of the beloved,
Life's, beloved, the universe of the beloved.
Emotions' beloved, thoughts of the beloved,
Life's, beloved, the universe of the beloved.
Such devotion, no second thought can dare,
Love's perfection, Love's decree,
Whose body feels love's ecstasy.
Love's perfection, Love's decree,
Whose body feels love's ecstasy.
