Why Must the Gods Speak Always in Riddles?

I will never leave this house of light,
I will never leave this blessed town
for here I have found my love 
and here I will stay for the rest of my life.
If this world turns into a sea of trouble
I will brave the waves and steer my mind's ship
to the safe shore of love.

If you are a seeker looking for profit go on
and may God be with you,
but I am not willing to exchange my truth,
I have found the heart and will never leave
this house of light.
