My whole body
Has become filled with Light.
I pour forth my spirit
into joy!
I sing!
I dance!
I am arrayed in white,
For my sufferings and fears
Have departed from me.
I dance the eternal ecstacy
of being.

O Love,
I know that thy immortal melodies
are never hushed.
Unbroken flows the rhythm
For me to dance upon,
And thy unvariable joy
Awaits my fearless being.
