My Secret Soul

My Secret Soul

—after “At Thy Feet”

In my secret soul grows a garden where my secret Belovèd
Nurtures enchanted flowers of melody with the grand AUM…

Buds of beauty dance and sway as I play the harmonium
And sing my soul songs only for Thy listening presence.

Listen to my soul songs, O Divine Belovèd,
Listen to my songs of joy divine and love everlasting!

Hiding from the glaring eye of the world,
I make my magical noise only for Thy listening presence—

Far from the bustle of the deceptions
And delusions of maya.

Listen to my soul songs, O Divine Joy!
Listen to my magic songs, O Playful One!

I hear Thee AUMing throughout my brain,
Inside my heart, within my mind!

I wait listening, listening, listening with my whole being!
I wait listening, listening, listening in my secret soul!
