Gazing at the Starry Sky

I gaze at the starry sky
An expanse so vast and blue
With endless yearning
I love boundlessly, I love true
I gaze at the starry sky
'Tis calm and without a stain
With your ceaseless wisdom
I press against wind and rain
I gaze at the starry sky
'Tis grave and sublimely whole
In your bulging bosom
I settle my fragile soul
I gaze at the starry sky
'Tis quiet and gloriously bright
In your flaming passion
I furnish my hope with light
