DHYANA AND DONALOGUE
(Sheila Chandra)

I saw you first on a Sunday evening
About the old tower as I was kneeling
Upon Christ's passion I was reading
But my eye was on you
and my sore heart bleeding

Oh, Donal Og, can't you feel me near you
Why don't you tremble the way that I do
I'll be your lantern to show you truth plainly
And if you are set on
I'll defend you bravely

Wild as a crow is this heart within me
Dark as your shadow is this grief that blinds me
Stained as a boot print on the polished hallways
And it is you that has stained it
Forever and always

You took what's before me, and what's behind me
You took East and West when you wouldn't mind me
Sun, moon and stars from my sky you've taken
And the God above
Or I'm much mistaken

I saw you first on a Sunday evening
About the old tower as I was kneeling
Upon Christ's passion I was reading
But my eye was on you
and my sore heart bleeding
