Without telling anyone or declaring it,
why did You come in this way?
I could not decorate my house,
nor kindle my lamp to welcome You.
With such arrangements seeming futile to You,
You came, oblivious of them.
In royal festivity,
I shall arrange Your welcome.
With the light of camphor,
with incense and flowers,
I shall welcome You.
