O' Lord !*

I don't know if I was baptized

Yet I know I'm in paradise

Since I set on you my eyes

Or, is it the other way round,

                                          O' Lord ?

I thought I was on my own

I thought I had to walk alone

In dark with no light to beacon

But 'twas you leading the path on,

                                           O' Lord !

How's that I didn't know you before

Although you're always around there

Was I covered with my own shadow

Not realizing it'd vanish in your halo,

                                             O' Lord ?

O' Lord !

- Narayan
