Don't turn Your eyes away from me

(2774)  Dure jeo na arale saro na

Don't go far, don't withdraw behind a curtain;
Kindly smile in mind's grove of madhavi.
Don't turn Your face away, don't stay upset;
On life please coat a gladdening honey.

To the mortal realm You have brought heaven's nectar;
My mental casket You have filled with ideation.
You have loved, and nearby You have drawn;
Auspicious day or not, remain with me.

Under the moonlight and inside darkness dense,
Always keep me with You ever, oh my Beloved.
Humbly this I make, I make this request:
Don't forget, though frail I be, I am Yours only.
