At my floral grove, why did You not appear,
Stealthily, on silent feet?
Known to none, divined by no one,
With eyes smiling, I would have been seeing.
In my floral grove, Lord, there are no thorns;
Fallen leaves, never do I cast off.
Notwithstanding, lest abide crest and trough,
Kindly come most cautiously.
Stayed with young grass has a slimness of body;
With the blossom-buds, a fine scent inheres.
With fantail spread, mind's peacock is dancing,
A cadence, by sweetness accompanied.

When all is said and done, my love thrives not on fanfare.
