You have taken away my looks, with just a glance You have taken my identity, with just a glance Made me drink the wine of love, with just a glance Intoxicated, with just a glance And I give my life to you You have taken away my looks and my identity, with just a glance And you have said… what can’t be said, with just a glance By making me drink the wine of love and devotion You have intoxicated me, with just a glance And I give my life to you In Love
Its greatness, it alone knows. ... the glance of love is its gift.

Oil is hidden in the lamp Light
There is a Presence inside the glow you can see when you look into someone's eyes -
do you see?
Everything that shines shines from the same Hiddenness
Inside the grape skin joy waits, the taste of Grace for those who wish to see beyond right under their feet
Such Lovers, seen they are, disrobed by a seeing Love
"I heard laughter"... Blessing blossoms are flowing from inside someone's heart
Why search here or there?... the Seer sees out of everyone's eyes
