In time I loved You,
oh beauty, so ancient yet so novel,
In time I loved you.
And here You were within and I was without and there
I sought, casting myself, ugly,
on these beautiful things You created.
You were with me,
but I wasn't with You:
I kept creatures well afar,
that, hadn't they been in You, wouldn't be.
You beckoned me,
crying, winning my deafness,
bolting, flashing,
losing my blindness.
You scattered Your scent,
I inhaled it and yearned for You.
I tasted you and now I feel hunger and thirst.
You touched me and I now burn in the desire of your peace.
