Light, my light, the world-filling light, the eye-kissing light, heart-sweetening light!
Ah, the light dances, my darling, at the centre of my life; the light strikes, my darling, the chords of my love; the sky opens, the wind runs wild, laughter passes over the earth.
The butterflies spread their sails on the sea of light. Lilies and jasmines surge up on the crest of the waves of light.
The light is shattered into gold on every cloud, my darling, and it scatters gems in profusion.
Mirth spreads from leaf to leaf, my darling, and gladness without measure. The heaven's river has drowned its banks and the flood of joy is abroad.
I make not my division of the hours By dials, clocks, or waking birds’ acclaim,
Nor measure seasons by the reigning flowers, The spring’s green glories, or the autumn’s flame.
To me thy absence winter is, and night, Thy presence spring, and the meridian day.
From thee I draw my darkness and my light, Now swart eclipse, now more than heavenly ray.
Thy coming warmeth all my soul like fire, And through my heartstrings melodies do run,
As poets fabled the Memnonian lyre Hymned acclamation to the rising sun.
My heart hums music in thy influence set:
So winds put harps Aeolian on the fret.
