My friend,
I keep the house decorated for You.
You, who make me oblivious
of who is near and who is far.

Lilies smile
in the radiance of the moon.
Tears which drenched my heart
float in the mirror of my mind.

You have taught me of ever effulgent love.
The gentle southern breeze floats off
to a far destination.

While wafting its fragrance
it distinguishes not
between the elated
and those who mourn.

My friend,
I have keep my house decorated for You.
You have made me realise
Your matchless glory.
