SAINT MIRA
Beloved!
Thy Light doth shine On herb and grass, On flower and fruit, On drops of dew,
On beauty of the clouds, On running streams,
Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir
On falling rains,
On winds and wheeling fires, On thorns and roses soft, On every birth
And every silence Of night and sleep!
Then, in utter devotion, she sings again :
O come Thou quick!
For, lo! I faint for Thee! Beloved!
Come! Come! Come! O Light of lights!
Mira is adoring her Beloved within closed doors. The Temple-room is fragrant with the fragrance of Him who is the Purest of the pure. Mira is dancing in the presence of her Beloved.
Again and again, she exclaims :-"O Thou, the Treasure of my heart! O Thou, the Breath of my breath!"
