To Be In Love

Seen I had many beautiful stars,

Seen I had many benevolent smiles,

Thought I had, that I had seen paradise too,

But then I saw you….

Heard I had a lot of heavenly sounds,

Heard I had many eternal beats,

Thought I had, that I had heard the Almighty’s voice too,

But then I heard you…

Felt I had, life’s immense joys,

Felt I had, pleasures of different kinds,

Thought I had, that I had felt all kinds of love too,

But then I knew what it is like to be in love with you…

Fallen in love I had, many times before too

Tunes of poetry I sure had written then too,

Find a new meaning to life; I did each time too,

But then I didn’t know you….

Know you when I did do,

Days became brighter for me,

New hopes, new beginnings everywhere I did see,

And then, I knew what it is like to be in love with you…
