Trappings



(66)  Rumjhum rumjhum nupura bajaye

Rumjhum, rumjhum... ankle bells ajingle,
Who are You that entered the core of my heart?
Instigating billows in my thought waves,
Who appeared in such charming apparel?

Making Earth perfumed with sweet laugh,
With flute on lips resounding...
Making all things bright on every side,
Who arrived with both rhythm and dance?

Rumjhum, rumjhum... the sound of Your ankle bells–
Would that they ring constantly inside of my heart.
