(Originally in Chinese)
Immersed
in this Ocean of Divine Love,
My heart is sailing home.
Embraced by the vast, tranquil water,
Forever swimming in love.
The
Ocean washes away my sorrows;
The Ocean melts my stubborn self.
I once was lost, but
Day by day I am growing up.
In
the bitter sea, I looked for the Truth,
Braving rainstorms, I searched in vain.
In the dark night, I wept alone,
For my perpetual suffering in the secular world.
God's
love descends and graces,
Nourishing this withered soul.
Wave after wave of nectar rises,
So cooling and soothing to the heart.
Immersed
in this Ocean of Divine Love,
I have found the truth of life.
Hence, no more solitary odyssey on earth,
No more perplexity and tears.
Vast
and boundless, this eternal love,
Embraces me constantly,
Pampering me like a baby,
Caressing the wounds of my soul.
In
this infinite Love Ocean, I am exalted,
So radiant, so beautiful, and so bright.
The truth is, You are inside of everything,
And everything is in the Ocean of Love.
