Analysis of You Are Transparent (10)
You are transparent
I see the face of God
There is no masquerade
There is no facade
You are transparent
I see the gentle eyes
There is no deception
There is no disguise
You are transparent
I see the dancing beat
There is no camouflage
There is no deceit
You are transparent
I see the heart domain
There is no travesty
There is no disdain
You are transparent
I see the serenade
There is no impostor
There is no charade
