@3Who is with me?@1 I whom you know. @3I know no man@1 I am none you have seen. @3How can this be?@1 You are the flower on my tree, And I the forest hidden in the flower, I am the power That to dust gives sight, I am the light That casts the shadow of the world, And in that shadow you are veiled In my darkness sevenfold. You are the child, The bride and mother of a mystery, Yet you shall know Who I am that lies in you, Whose the arms wherein you lie. @3Then let the hidden will of love Descend upon me like a dove And my seven veils of night Become a sevenfold rainbow bright, And each beam of love shall raise A spirit that shall sing love's praise, A heart to beat for love's delight, The petals of an opening world, And at the centre, love revealed.@1 |
