Bhajan No. 399 | Date: 30-Sep-19981998-09-301998-09-30Standing in the courtyard, you called my nameDr. Hira/bhajan/?title=standing-in-the-courtyard-you-called-my-nameStanding in the courtyard, you called my name,

Running with joy I came, yet you were not the same,

Searched you here and there I did, but you had left when I came,

Calling me beyond the mountains, running with joy I came,

But, alas, it was too late, for you had left when I came.

Calling me across the seven seas, running with joy I came,

But all I found was myself tame, for you had left when I came.

Running around the world you called, running with joy I came,

But faster you vanished from me, for you had left when I came.

The final leg of my test came, running with joy I came,

Waiting for me with open hands were you, for you were there when I came.

Standing in the courtyard, you called my name
