MOUNTAIN
NIGHTS
There is unbroken
quietness,
In the mountains, in the night.
A stillness even thoughts can't break,
In the mountains, in the night.
A stillness even thoughts can't break,
Nor shatter as if
light.
The night's
protective blackness,
Like a velvet wrap is worn.
An embrace of one's whole body,
Sensuous and warm.
Like a velvet wrap is worn.
An embrace of one's whole body,
Sensuous and warm.
The stars - a
million dancing lights,
Choose one and it is yours.
One is enough; please leave the rest,
For poets and philosophers.
Choose one and it is yours.
One is enough; please leave the rest,
For poets and philosophers.
A scent of wild
Jasmine,
Pervades the soft night air.
An intoxicant so strong,
No match found anywhere.
Pervades the soft night air.
An intoxicant so strong,
No match found anywhere.
Evening music of
the woods,
Rustling sylvan chords.
God, I think, is whispering,
Hush, don't miss His words.
Rustling sylvan chords.
God, I think, is whispering,
Hush, don't miss His words.
Close your eyes
in solitude,
Your Lord and you alone.
You've caught a glimpse of Heaven,
You've caught a glimpse of Home.
Your Lord and you alone.
You've caught a glimpse of Heaven,
You've caught a glimpse of Home.
