Identifier

Type of Spiritual Experience
Background
A description of the experience
Into your deepest dreams [Adapted from a poem by Heinrich Heine]
I wish that my love and its longing
Might a single word convey
The gentle breezes should bear it
And tenderly waft it away
They should waft it to you my beloved
This soft and caring word
At every hour you should hear it
Wherever you were t’would be heard
And when in the night’s first dozing
Your eyes scarcely closed it seems
Still would my word pursue you
Into your deepest dreams
