Frustration

(862)  Manera upavane malaya pavane eso

Come into my mental garden with a gentle breeze;
For You I am waiting.
On a moonlit night, abide with me in love complete,
I have strung a garland for Thee.

How much You have given, how much You have loved!
Yet embrace You don't give, You don't come close enough;
So this time please draw near, sit within my heart's core.
From its sweetness Your dais I've fashioned.

What sort of love is this, smiling only from a distance!
You've embodied all of my ambitions,
Playing tunes on Your flute, filling heart's horizons.
With my lamp alight, I've kept waiting.
