1.

O my heart,
I love you and I need you.
I love your earthly purity-cry
And I need your Heavenly
    divinity-smile.

2.

O my heart,
Our Lord Beloved Supreme
    has told me
That He will supply your
    every need
Born and yet unborn.

3.

O my heart,
Do tell me if I am not the
    person you want me to be.
I shall always have the time,
And I shall always have the
    eagerness
To perfect myself so that I
    can be claimed by you as
    your own, very own.

4.

O my heart,
Because you choose to live
    compassionately,
My life and I hope to live
    happily.

5.

O my heart,
Do not allow my
    undisciplined vital to
    befriend you.
That friendship will be the
    greatest waste
Of your unhorizoned
    potential.

6.

O my heart,
Today you have made me
    unimaginably happy
By launching your aspiration-boat
On my life's dedication-river.

7.

O my heart,
Sleeplessly you are teaching me
How to anchor my human love
In God's divine Love.

8.

O my heart,
You expect permanent happiness on earth.
And in every way you deserve it, too.
But alas, alas, alas.
Will it ever happen?
Will you ever be flooded with happiness?
I shall pray and pray and pray to God for you.

9.

O my heart,
Every day you lovingly teach my mind
How to climb up the
    mountain of awareness
And every day my soul fondly teaches you
How to fly in the sky of selflessness.

10.

O my heart,
You are desperately trying
    to discipline my mind.
Do you not know
That it is as useless
As trying to tame the wind?

11.

O my heart,
Your will is your own
    oneness-satisfaction-friend.
Therefore, I am so proud of you.
Alas, my mind's will is its own
    division-destruction-enemy.

12.

O my heart,
When I am not with you
And when I am not for you
I am forced to move
From unhappiness-death
    to fruitlessness-death.

13.

O my heart,
I am exceedingly happy today.
Do you know why?
Today I have completely passed through
The longest dry desert of my doubting mind,
And now I am being blessed
By the beauty of your
God-fragrance-garden.

14.

O my heart,
I am exceedingly happy
To see every day
New and charming leaves
On your God-revealing life-plant.

15.

O my heart,
Like you I wish to be
    a student of divine love.
Like you I shall never want
    to finish my schooling.

16.

O my heart,
I am so sorry to have kept you waiting
For my life's perfection-marks
So that you can give me proudly
Your satisfaction-award.

17.

O my heart,
Like you I wish to be
    sleeplessly and intimately
    personal with God.
O my heart, do be my private
    wisdom-light-tutor.

18.

O my heart,
Time and again God has told me
That your part
    in His sweet Dream-Play
    is extremely significant.
Therefore, my pride in you
    knows no bounds.

19.

O my heart,
When I am not with you
I live in yesterday's
    falsehood-doubt-cave.
When I am with you
I live in tomorrow's
    truth-conviction-palace.

20.

O my heart,
Just because I am for you
I am enjoying the slow,
    steady and unerring progress
Of God-revealing and God-manifesting faith
In my entire being.

21.

O my heart,
I am secretly telling you that every day
I plead with my undivine mind
To come and study
    at your faith boarding school.
Alas, my mind is nothing other
    than shameless unwillingness.

22.

O my heart,
When I soulfully pray to God,
He sends you to me with the message:
"Nothing is too much."
And when I unconditionally meditate on God,
He sends you to me with the message:
"Nothing is too soon."

23.

O my heart,
You are constantly telling me
That my life's gratitude-telegrams
    can and will reach God
Sooner than the soonest
From anywhere in the world.

24.

O my heart,
If I had only known
How much you cared for me,
I would not have stayed with
    my doubt-poison-mind,
Even for a fleeting second.

25.

O my heart,
You are your mounting aspiration-flames
To reach the highest illumination-heights.
Therefore, I am divinely and supremely
    proud of you.
Look at my utterly stupid mind:
It is dying for death-desire-drugs.

26.

O my heart,
You are always ready
    with your aspiration-candles.
Alas, will my mind ever be ready
with its inspiration-matches?

27.

O my heart,
When I do not live
    in your illumination-province,
A doubt-volcano forces me
    to move
From the frustration-town
    to the failure-village.

28.

O my heart,
Your daily surrender-gratitude-life
Is saving me
    from the undying undercurrent
    of expectation.

29.

O my heart,
I am all gratitude to you
For teaching me to say goodbye
To my very, very old partner:
    doubt.

30.

O my heart,
Every day I am learning from you
Two most significant lessons:
A soulful receptivity
    and a prayerful readiness
To surrender to God's Will.

31.

O my heart,
How kind of you
    to share with me unconditionally
The sweet, sweeter, sweetest taste
    of gratitude.

32.

O my heart,
I am sleeplessly grateful to you,
For you have asked me
To call God my Beloved,
My only Beloved Supreme.

33.

O my heart,
I am extremely fond of you
For many divine things you embody,
But especially for the snow-white innocence
Of your childlike smile.

34.

O my heart,
You simply do not know what
    negativity is.
Therefore, to my greatest joy,
You are a perfect stranger
To unfriendliness-disaster-crime.

35.

O my heart,
Your tremendous and momentous
    receptivity-capacity
Is pleasing me far beyond
    your imagination.
And I do hope that my most sincere
    appreciation-capacity
Is pleasing you in a small measure.

36.

O my heart,
When I am inside you
Do you know what I deeply enjoy?
I enjoy a sea of silence-delight
That can never be attacked and bitten
By thought-mosquitoes.

37.

O my heart,
Your fondest dream
    is constant God-satisfaction.
And my bravest promise
    is God-manifestation here and now.

38.

O my heart,
You are asking me to look at
The beauty of your moon-light
And the prosperity of your sun-power.
I am at once all obedience and all ecstasy.

39.

O my heart,
You are my delight-sea within,
You are my delight-mountain without.
Like you, my only oneness friend,
I shall start my day
    with a soulful surrender-song
And end my day
    with a beautiful gratitude-dance.

40.

O my heart,
Your great and good
    encouragement-strength
Has rescued me countless times
From drowning in a sea
    of self-pity-tears.

41.

O my heart,
When I breathe in your fragrance-light,
How easily I surrender to God
My heavy world-resentment-burden.

42.

O my heart,
I am all gratitude to you,
For your breathless willingness
To serve God in God's own Way
Is permeating my entire being.

43.

O my heart,
My superiority-giants
    and my inferiority-ghosts
Simply disappear
    the moment they see me
Swing with you in your oneness-cradle.

44.

O my heart,
Selfish actions have
    imprisoned the world.
You are desperately trying
    to liberate the world.
God the Compassion
    is crying through you.
I know, someday God the Victory
Will, without fail,
    smile through you.

45.

O my heart,
I need no credentials
To arrive at God's Door
Only when I accompany you.

46.

O my heart,
You always get the first preference
When you dial God's
Emergency-Heart-Number.
And when you call, unlike other callers,
God Himself answers immediately.

47.

O my heart,
Every day you are feeding me
    with God's Nectar-Delight.
I need no more useless God-explanation
    from my scholar-friend.
I need no more useless God-understanding
    from my philosopher-friend.

48.

O my heart,
Yesterday I saw you
    in your aspiration-career.
Today I am seeing you
    with a perfection-crown on your head.
And whose perfection-crown?
God's, definitely God's.

49.

O my heart,
It is you who have taught me
How to write every day
Most soulful love-letters to God.
My prayer-life and my meditation-life
From this moment on
Will cheerfully, sleeplessly
    and unconditionally
Be at your service.
