The Thirst Never Quenches

The thirst that never quenches
O Almighty,
Meditating upon you is the thirst
That never quenches

I have been meditating upon you…
For a long time,
Every now and then,
Countless times

But 
Never stops
That thirst never quenches

Why and how?
That thirst arise in me
That thirst continues in me

Now
I myself do not know
Is my thirst I am?
Or
Am I the thirst?

What so ever-

That thirst exists
I subsist 

O Almighty,

Will that thirst prevail?
Till I lose myself in you
Till I gain myself from you
