In what distant past did we first see each other?
In history there is neither account nor record of it.
This event has not been sketched in geometry
nor written down with a pen.
There is no painting of it on either a canvas nor on a cloth
by whatever brush.
When I was lost,
You lifted me,
through melody and rhythm,
onto the deep recess of Your mind.
