5399. The Fragrance of his Faith-flower
When I came into the worldAnd breathed in for the first time,
My Lord Supreme granted me the boon
Of breathing in the Fragrance of His Faith-flower
Inside my heart.
Today He is smelling
The fragrance of my gratitude-flower.
I am happy
Not because He has given me something,
Not because I have given Him something,
But because I see that His Eyes
Are all Light
And feel that His Heart
Is all Delight.
