I am stricken with love for You, thoughts of you are constantly with me.
You are the fulfiller of hopes and the defeater of sorrow. You give companionship to the companionless, a hand to those who are drowning.
You are saviour to the helpless, You alone their support. You give strength to those whose courage has failed; In their sorrow You alone can help.
Those who weep, You make them smile; They depend on You alone.
The world is your crown jewel. Your dominion is above that of the kings. When you cause it, joy is sustained.
Inayat is your servant.
