To my humble abode in the dense woods
On a moonless dark cloudy night
My beloved entered my cottage
The doors were locked and there were no windows
And yet the beloved entered my humble abode
The cottage lit up like a million lamps
The night seemed to have turned into day
The birds and beasts of the forest
Mistook night for day and woke up
Such was your brilliance oh beloved
The night was brighter than the brightest day
My eyes shut themselves at the bright light
Then they became accustomed to your luminescence
I asked the beloved "How did you enter?"
"Closed are the doors and windows, where did you come from?"
The beloved responded in a voice
That reverberated through my being as I stood
"Fool! where was I to enter through the door?"
"Why enter through the door when I was here all along!"
"Where and who were you?" I asked
"Here and You" came the answer!
