On a warm, dark night 
More gentle than the jasmine breeze
You came towards me 
From behind the forest trees

Your form was glowing, eyes half-closed in peace
Your flute was flowing a melody that never ceased 

Stay a while in my heart, Lord 
Don't go away soon 

I've thrown myself into ocean's embrace, 
Touched the mountains and the sky
But when you drew me into your heart, 
I felt the universe sigh

Stay a while in my heart, lord
Don't go away soon 

In the depth of my heart, Lord
I've arranged the perfect seat
Stay a while in my heart, Lord
I will serve your lotus feet
