In the Name of Love

I won’t betray you

In the name of love,

Have faith in me,

To you I beseech so.

 

Don’t the dancing branches,

The glassy sea,

The sands like gold,

And the mynah hark back to our past moments?

 

Oh God! Why are all so broken and blown?

Where is that kingdom of love?

So familiar it used to be

But now utterly unknown.   

 

As the scorching summer

Blows the flames on all sides,

My heart is burning alike and drying out

As the winter imbibes all the water.

 

Be mine forever

In the name of love

And for the sake of childlike virtue

That has its home in my heart, inner.
