Translation
Bilingual
The light came through the window
ย
Straight from the sun above
ย
And so inside my little room
There plunged the rays of love
ย
In streams of light I clearly saw
The dust you seldom see
ย
Out of which the nameless makes
A name for one like me
I'll try to say a little more
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door โ
Then love itself
Love itself was gone
ย
All busy in the sunlight
The flecks did float and dance
And I was tumbled up with them
In formless circumstance
I'll try to say a little more
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door โ
Then love itself
Love itself was gone
ย
Then I came back from where I'd been
My room, it looked the same โ
But there was nothing left between
The nameless and the name
(Nameless and the name)
All busy in the sunlight
The flecks did float and dance
And I was tumbled up with them
In formless circumstance
I'll try to say a little more
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door โ
Then love itself
Love itself was gone
ย
Love itself
Love itself was gone
