My heart beheld, oh Mother, the Dark One, the Dark One,
My heart beheld, oh Mother, casting off all worldly shame,
Forgetting all sense, the Dark One, the Dark One.
With peacock plumes he crowns his head so fair,
With peacock plumes he crowns his head so fair,
A saffron mark upon his brow, his eyes bring joy,
Eyes that bring joy, the Dark One, the Dark One.
My heart beheld, oh Mother, the Dark One, the Dark One,
The Dark One.

Earrings dance upon his cheeks, his hair in gentle waves,
Earrings dance upon his cheeks, his hair in gentle waves,
As the fish forsakes the pond to meet the crocodile,
To meet the crocodile, the Dark One, the Dark One.
My heart beheld, oh Mother, the Dark One, the Dark One.

The Dancer Lord appears, his form enthralls the world,
The Dancer Lord appears, his form enthralls the world,
The Mountain-Lifter's every limb, for Mira, a sacrifice,
A sacrifice, the Dark One, the Dark One.
My heart beheld, oh Mother, the Dark One, the Dark One.
