tonite

meet me here tonite

under the spreading tree 

within fullness and glory

where the fruit is heavy and ripe

ready to be eaten in joy

where the heart is not away 

and the mind is still and lost 

in the ocean of now 

meet me here tonite

in the cave where the sadhu dwells 

his torch lit to extinguish the dust of separation

his heart burning to know 

his mind dissolved in one truth 

his body left to the elements 

not as a thing to be seen as the self any longer 

dwelling in pure stillness 

here in the cave 

meet me here tonite 

in the open air

where the birds fly and caw 

and make their nests in the sky

and make their wings strong 

and make their soul to sing and sing

of God's love 

so glorious 

rising 

so fine in it's beautiful emptiness 

for all to hear 

this very same chant 

om namah shivaya

tonite is the time to be a wanderer 

of the earth 

within yourself

and take in the beautiful scent 

of non-dual reality

and let loose anything that sings of other

and let the moon live in you

and the stars and the earth 

the sky 

all that is here 

is in you 

tonite 

meet me 

here
