Love Like A Fire
Embracing Love's Hidden Flame
Lyrics
On a dark night,
Reflecting on a dark night
I woke in love and yearning
Awakening with love and longing
I left with none observing
Leaving unnoticed
My house being now at rest
Home in a state of peace
A love like a fire,
Describing a love intense like fire
Without light or flame
Intense love without visible signs
Burning ever brighter
Continuously growing and shining
Keeps me on my way
Guiding the speaker's journey
In darkness but without a fear
Comfort in darkness without fear
Down secret stairs I disappear
Descending into hidden depths
No other light or guide
Relying on internal light
Than the one that burns inside
Internal light as the sole guide
Stare into the fire
Encouraging introspection into hidden emotions
That no one else can see
Undisclosed feelings visible only to the speaker
Burning ever brighter
Love intensifying and waiting
And you’re there waiting for me
Anticipation of a beloved presence
Oh night that guides!
Night as a guiding force
Oh night, more lovely than the dawn
Night more enchanting than the dawn
That joins beloved with love
Uniting the beloved with love
In the night, you guided me
Expressing guidance received during the night
More surely than the light of the day
Night more reliable than daylight
Upon my flowering chest,
Symbolic description of intimacy
You lay asleep, and I caressed
Caring for the beloved
Just as a breeze blew in across the wall
Subtle and gentle connection
With the softest touch, you pierced my vein
Intense emotional experience
I abandoned all, forgot my name
Complete surrender and forgetting identity
And there I remained, beyond all pain
Enduring beyond pain and in a state of bliss
Soaked in rain
Metaphorically soaked in a blissful state
Flames growing higher
Visualizing the growing intensity of emotions
You can see it from a mile away
Visible intensity from a distance
As wide as a river, as tall as a mountain range
Comparing intensity to a vast and tall presence
Oh night that guides!
Reiteration of night as a guiding force
Oh night, more lovely than the dawn
Night's beauty surpassing dawn
That joins beloved with love
Uniting the beloved with love
In the night, you guided me
Highlighting the reliability of night's guidance
More surely than the light of the day
Night more dependable than daylight
Stare into the fire,
Encouraging contemplation of love's challenges
Of love’s anxiety
Anxiety within the context of love
Burning ever brighter
Love intensifying despite challenges
And you’re there waiting for me
Anticipation of a beloved presence
Oh night that guides!
Reiteration of night as a guiding force
Oh night, more lovely than the dawn
Night's beauty surpassing dawn
That joins beloved with love
Uniting the beloved with love
In the night, you guided me
Highlighting the reliability of night's guidance
More surely than the light of the day
Night more dependable than daylight
