Our Lord and His Beloved
The universe is the reflection of this love
Such a unique love,
For which everything is sacrificed
Every visit to Your presence brings a new excitement
The heart trembles, as if losing its very essence
For a moment’s favor, the world is not enough
All dreams take shape on His face
“Ah!” emerges sweetly within;
With Your name, every cell intertwines
The soul and heart cannot get enough of You
The universe speaks Your name
So sweet, so satisfying,
You, whose every state is flawless
Leans solely towards You,
Indifferent to the world
No turning back from this love,
No alternative to this cause
Always seeking You;
Only You, the rest is sorrow
What love is this, what longing is this;
Impossible to comprehend
No way to describe it, no strength
Light rains down in torrents
O Lord, from the love for Your Beloved,
Grant us a glimpse
Let us nourish like angels from His remembrance
Let it endure forever, always echoing in our hearts
