With Your smile and flute

(1916)  E kar hasi e kar banshii

Whose smile is this; Whose flute is this?
One who drifts travels on their litter eternal.

Oh Who are You, sweetly talking?
You arrived, the mind's dark eradicating.
All that lived at Vrindavan
With Your heart were made to mingle.

'Pon the dust from Your feet,
The forest-doe's love secretes.
Lavish are the blooms, tier after tier;
And I too say: "I love Thee."
