I love existence, for You are
the soul of existence;
You are visible to me everywhere,
manifest in every direction.
As long as I am preoccupied with self, I remain
bewildered, wretched and tormented.
As soon as I am without self, I become joyful,
for You are the spirit of my soul.
Nothing appears to my eyes and heart
other than Your face.
You are both apparent in the outward form
and also hidden within.
You are what is seen by every viewer and
what is witnessed by every witness.
The form of existence is a manifestation of You.
You are the being of the cosmos.
Why do rational people try to define You
through quantity and quality
when You are beyond all thought, opinion
and even imagination?
The moment I stepped outside the realm
of “I” and “you”
I clearly saw Your trace everywhere, though in truth
You remain traceless.
Ever since You bestowed light
on my wandering heart,
I have come to know that in every realm
You are my sanctuary and safety.
