With flashes of lightning in the clouds,
You came in the dark night.

With unbound love and hope,
You smiled in my mental mirror.

I had been looking at the material world only,
enjoying pleasures in inertness.
I never looked at You even once,
I did not see that You had returned back.

I was intoxicated in the sentiment of self,
loving only selfish thinking.
I did not think that I too am but Your imagination,
for, You exist as the essence of all essences.
