In What Darkness

In what darkness dwells your heart?
From what fire springs your light?
Where burns the radiance of your soul?
With what heat do you warm the night? 
When you waken to your magic self,
are there continents and restless seas?
Tell me how to find the distant land
of the beautiful Nurys.
