and I lift my eager eyes to thy face.
In desperate hope I go and search for her
from which nothing can vanish --
can never be regained.
My house is small and what once has gone from it
Oh, dip my emptied life into that ocean,
and seeking her I have to come to thy door.
I have come to the brink of eternity
that lost sweet touch in the allness of the universe.
Let me for once feel
no vision of a face seen through tears.
I stand under the golden canopy of thine evening sky
But infinite is thy mansion, my lord,
no hope, no happiness,
plunge it into the deepest fullness.
in all the corners of my room; I find her not.
