Holy Mountain
As now into a holy mountain my soul makes
Pilgrimage to your side,
My heart unto your lips ascends,
For it is my heart that bears its kiss,
And in that swift-footed moment it
Trembles there, a captive sparrow,
Who'd taste of an eternal nectar,
A sweet elixir of bitterest joy
And thusly drunk take flight
To the very reaches of Love's
Full orbit.
