With gloomy night You give a fright

(2899)  Kena gele cale, phele amay

Why did You go away,
Deserting me?
Even still the stars exist, toward me have they gazed;
But the night, a swooning it brings.

You're with everybody, pervading night and day,
Enriched in prosperity and in anguish pained;
Have I been a burden to Thee?

Your amazing play, I can't comprehend;
Sincerely I wish that with me ever You may dwell.
Taking not my sorrow, coat You a happy sweetness,
In hope, both bloom and fruit suffusing.
