Transcendental

(3422) Katha jadi na kahile kena

When You spoke not, what's the reason,
Why Yourself You did reveal,
Why not stayed behind a screen?
I'd been waiting with much hope;
Having come, You increased despondency.

Stored had been much expectation;
So much ego-interest had been left undone.
At my mental room bejeweled,
Sparkle afforded disappeared.

Threadbare went the garland strung;
The song rehearsed came to naught.
Unheard was psyche's speech;
Beyond desire You were concealed.
