Why did You show Yourself,
if You do not speak to me?
Why didn’t You remain hidden?
I had been sitting, expecting and hoping for You.
Your arrival only increased my disappointment.
How much expectation had accumulated!
How many selfish desires remained unfulfilled in the casket of my mind!
Yet, You just showed glimpses of Yourself and went away.
My threaded floral garland withered away.
The well-practiced song for You became lost in oblivion.
Without listening to the feelings of my heart,
You went away, hiding beyond the scope of my mind.
