| 1 ABDU'L-BAHA | ||
| He was
diamonds, He was oceans, He was eyes of Persian blue He was First Light, He was many, He was One Open-hearted in the autumn, open-hearted in the spring Summer roses in His tunic each season He was harbour, He was heaven, He was heaven, He was home He was warm smile, He was soft voice, He was tears Strong and tender, like a river, and His heart beat like a bird's How I long to hear those wings beat close again He was new snow, on old branches, He was crystal in the stream He was silver-spinning rainfall, He was fire He was water from the deep well, He was rainbow on the marsh He was safe path to the hillside, He was stars He was shelter from the cold wind, He was warmth against the ice He was lips that told a language of their own His arms held out like branches, and His eyes were like a dove's How I long to feel those wings beat close again He was diamonds, He was oceans, He was colours in the sky He was everything and more than I can tell As I stumble through this world, I wonder to myself Where is there One who walked this world so well |
