It was beautiful one night

It was beautiful,
it was so beautiful one night
we all began to expect God would speak

from the waves
reaching toward the millet fields.

from the mouths of the hanging sky
ornaments crooning in light's infinite codes,

from the glances of children and plants
and hills playing with effulgent life.

It was beautiful,
it was so beautiful one night
we all began to expect God would speak.

 -- Hafiz, A Year with Hafiz

Oh, I love this image. Is it Kwan Yin or Buddha or ?
