You came amidst stormy and cyclonic winds
While I was asleep.
I woke up and opened my eyes.
With rhythm and melody,
You flashed on the mirror of my mind.
I woke up and opened my eyes.

I forgot everything of my past
And looked at the new dawn.
All past events,
All painful memories,
Everything I let go.
I woke up and opened my eyes.

In slow steps You came near me and talked.
You entered deep into the dense corner of my mind.
In sweet contemplation and to the flow
Of Your effulgent consciousness
I set myself adrift.
I woke up and opened my eyes.
