Your longing gave me such madness
We forgot ourselves, lost in remembering you
Your longing put my heart through a strange test
Made every breath carry only your mark
We became unaware of our own existence
Your faithfulness answered and created such a moment
Only your image remained in the mirror of my heart
Time erased every other reflection of me
Every heartbeat turned into a prayer, every tear into a voice
Love even turned silence into a song
We kept searching for ourselves in your every street
In the end, our own self made us forget ourselves
This love was fire, was river, was light
That burned the heart, yet adorned destiny
If anyone asks my name now, what should I say?
I have surrendered my very being to you
