My love is unrequited



(2956)  Nam janina paricay janina

Name I don't know, particulars I know not;
But I've loved You nonetheless.
Do You know it not?
I have gone on calling You, kindness I've begged;
Could You hear my plight or not?

On the new-moon night, impenetrably dense,
Under sweet moonlight, ray-dripping and love-laden,
I have called night and day, in meditation I have craved;
I have kept performing Your sadhana.

I have yearned for You on happy days;
With bad dreams I have pined on nights of pain.
I've known that I am Yours and imagined You are mine;
To forget this I cannot.
