Beyond the sunrise, before the dawn,

O' patience sky, I hear you calling,

I lose myself inside you,

in still of thought, waiting patiently,

I smell my birth, I cannot walk away,

I can taste heaven, somewhere, among these weeping waters,

I know you're there,

I reach for you, but this bondage holds me down,

through the crystal clouds,

my mind meditates,

reaching for light,

a tiny voice whispers,

I see visions that enlighten,

Night is just a memory when I'm sleeping,

a manuscript of illusion,

restfully essential,

the holder of crimsom blush,

quiet beauty beyond reach,

an awakening of the soul,

beyond the sunrise, before the dawn,

confined in spirit slumber,

calling, calling,

oh, can I yet to hear,

the dreamer of my dream,

dancing, in the lofty winds,

silenced in love,

only then as day has been,

is truth,

My eyes open to new and blue morning skies,

to see the earthly flowers,

to breathe the breath of God,

to hear the birds solitude song,

to climb another mountian,

to reach a new challenge,

to labor, to love,

to live and to die,

as slowly creeps my soul !
