One day the sun admitted I am just a shadow
I wish I could show you the infinite incandescence that has cast my brilliant image.
I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being.

I'm happy even before I have a reason.
I'm full of light even before the sky.
I can greet the sun or the moon.
Dear companions, we have been in love with God for so very, very long.
What can we do now but forever dance?

I have a thousand brilliant lies for the question.
How are you?
I have a thousand brilliant lies for the question, what is God?
If you think that the truth can be known from words,
if you think that the sun and the ocean can pass through that tiny opening called
the mouth,
oh,
someone should start laughing NOW!
