If there be one thing I have learned...

(3238)  Tomake cai ami jiivane

Yourself I crave in my life,
Everyplace, under darkness, under light.
With You in company would I dwell;
You are mine, You belong to me.

At one corner of these, my desert-wilds,
The two of us, You and I, will reside.
Except for Thee, I want nothing else;
You are refuge, You are footing.

In the past those who've retired
And those coming at a later time,
Their mental story I go and tell;
Everyone is Yours, no one base or mean.

Anything I do, righteous or vile,
It's as if Yourself on head bear I.
In hearing and thinking, a song out I belt:
You are limitless in virtue, boundless in beauty.
