Eternal Mother and Friend

There is light in your eyes

The light of charity

Like the robe of Joseph, it is brilliant white

All colors intertwined, infinite and pure

It betrays your knowledge of the mystery

That life is to love, love without preconception

Without guile or condition

There is light in your eyes

Which has shown upon my soul

And my soul has become light

The light of prophecy

To know the eternal destination

Of the children of strength

And a child yet known

There is light in your eyes

Eternal mother and friend
