1. With you I feel what in your heart denies
Come let us weep, O solace of my youth

2. Tears flow as you turn constant, cleaving on
Like their torrent as you disappear

3. You denied last night the fire that touched
My lips your fingers, grapevines

4. And my right hand flowed in a stream of you
Free flowing like a channel set loose

5. And I asked why my silence and meditation
And why the confusion of doubt lingered on

6. Come give me the taste of certainty and bring
Relief from pains and agonies

7. Come swear to me once in my life
That this drink I was given is no mirage

8. I crave this certainty, its taste
In my mouth, my denial a delicious draft

9. Who are you, from what worlds enchanter
Monopolizing minds of the wise

10. I asked myself when I saw you appear
And prolonged were my unanswered pleas

11. What can an immaculate King do in a
Fleeting, evanescent world

12. What can the righteous do in an earth
That equated the vile and the pure

13. Spinning for eons as its ways dictate
From nights of sins to dawns of remorse

14. Life overflows only to end
At the dirt, cheap as dust

15. O pillar of blessed beauty, its niche
The captivating light, the shrine unsullied

16. No truth but in your flames alone
And its enduring majesty over eras

17. I offered you the rest of me
Lost upon the loved ones

18. And melted its essence for the sake
Of holy visions, sublime sanctum
