Wanting to want

(2992)  Liilay racecho e samsar

With divine sport this world You've formed;
I know not why, I don't know the reason.
Such a magic show, oh, such enigma;
I don't understand aught.

All those things that I hold dear–
In gladness and sorrow I laugh and weep–
They are untruth; mind wants not to regard.

In winter the heat, it sustains life,
In summer the coolness, it assuages,
In autumn and spring the fragrance excites;
But they don't exist, psyche does not regard.
