The Sacred Fulfillment of a Long-Held Wish
Some desires live deep within us, not as fleeting wants, but as profound yearnings that shape our journey. My short poem (translated below from Hindi to English) speaks to such a yearning—a powerful testament to the fulfillment of a cherished dream.
For many years, I had only one wish.
To come close to you.
To connect with you.
To be in your light.
To feel your happiness.
Now, this wish has come true!
More Than Just a Wish: A Journey of Longing
For many years, this "one wish" wasn't just a casual thought; it was a constant companion, a quiet prayer whispered into the universe. The lines that follow beautifully articulate the facets of this singular desire:
- "To come close to you." This isn't just physical proximity. It's about intimacy, understanding, and breaking down any barriers that might exist. It speaks to a soul-level closeness.
- "To connect with you." This takes the idea of closeness further, implying a genuine, reciprocal bond. It's the yearning for shared thoughts, emotions, and experiences—a true meeting of minds and hearts.
- "To be in your light." This phrase is particularly profound. "Light" often symbolizes truth, guidance, warmth, and positivity. To be in someone's light means to be uplifted by their presence, to find clarity and comfort in their very being. It suggests that this "you" radiates something inherently good and life-giving.
- "To feel your happiness." This speaks to a deep empathy and selfless love. It's not just about experiencing personal joy, but finding immense satisfaction in the happiness of the other person. Their joy becomes a source of one's own.
Together, these lines paint a picture of a profound spiritual or emotional longing, not for a tangible item, but for a profound relational experience.
The Miracle of Manifestation
Then comes the powerful culmination: "Now, this wish has come true!" This isn't just a statement of fact; it's an exclamation of gratitude, relief, and profound joy. After years of anticipation, the universe has aligned, and the deepest desire of the heart has been granted.
This poem reminds us that:
- Patience can be rewarded. Some of the most meaningful fulfillments in life require time and unwavering hope.
- True connection is a sacred gift. The kind of bond described here is transformative and deeply enriching.
- Happiness is often found in shared experience. The joy of feeling someone else's happiness amplifies our own.
Ultimately, this poem is a beautiful ode to the power of a heartfelt wish and the immense satisfaction when that wish, particularly one rooted in deep connection and shared light, finally blossoms into reality. It celebrates the profound joy of finding exactly what your heart has longed for, and the deep peace that comes with it.
