Dear Lord,
that winter night,
You came to my home,
oblivious of the path.

I had no hope for Your arrival ever to take place,
at the door of this poor person.

I could not get the time to decorate my home.
I could not thread a garland from of my mental flowers.
I could not sketch any welcoming signs,

neither on the water jar,
nor on the altar,
nor on the path of Your arrival.

I have now understood,
that this visit of Yours is simply due to Your causeless mercy.
I do neither know the invocation mantra,

nor do I know how to say 'goodbye'.
Hence, I expect You to stay forever.
