O Shepherd

"...I see a blossoming universe singing with you..."

O Shepherd

I don't understand,
The intricacies of musical tunes and compositions,
The ascending and descending notes,
Yet your song feels so good,
With its rhythm and melody.

Your emotional voice draws my mind,
Touching the soul repeatedly.

Something happens that sadness and joy,
Deep sorrow and boundless happiness,
All seem to merge together,
And I live the truths of life.
As I swim along the waves of your notes,
I see a blossoming universe singing with you.

I too desire to sing with you!
