Deluge of Love
O shadows why I know thee not?
Thou came so muffed in haze in fog!
O stop for once !O peace! O love!
O haze of eye, O heart of dove!
Which darkish clouds are on the sky?
Which watery waves afloat at sides ?
All wail and cry across the sky
On yonder hilltop reached the tides
I need Noah's ark of palmy bark
O stop for once deluge of love!
Thy Holy Temps, thy mosque and Church
For torn off hearts refuge of love
O hark O hear , the wounds thou bear
To Him more than all world art dear
The One who smiles at thee from high
Thy Lord who lives in heart of thine
My Autumn dreams come out of heart
And sore on clouds on high and high
O come and with thee take my words
On gusts of winds to moonlit sky
O heart O vale, May not thou fail
He on His Eden gate Thee hale
This world was not for sake of Thee
He made for thee a home on high
This dust of thine to dust may flee
Go soul, Thou fly on seventh sky
