Lament not, do not fear

(3024)  Asibe, asibe bale gele

You'll appear,
You'll arrive; saying so, You did leave.
Why did You come not?
The threaded floral garland,
It kept molting, as You wore it not.

At the window, listlessly
I stay seated, solitary.
Whispers zephyr into ear:
"Promise, You kept not."

The sun, it comes and then sinks;
It goes, uttering secretly:
"Again I'll rise in the east;
Oh you, please cry not."
