I Am the One
I am the center of the universe
The eternal soul,
I am the supreme consciousness
I am He
He is I,
Together, we are one.
To me belong
the heavens and the earth;
I summon the sun to rise,
At my behest it retreats.
None there is like me
The life I live is mine
Mine is the time to spend and
I squander my moments at whim.
I alone think my thoughts
My thoughts are mine,
I share them at will.
I gallop with the wayward wind
and loiter around with the lazy breeze,
With the sprightly stream
I meander through dales and valleys,
Like a calm placid lake I lounge
languorously in some yonder cove.
Oh, my soul is a wanderer
I yearn to fly high and soar the heavens,
The ability to see beauty in everything
is to know what love is.
