And for now I still do

(3062)  Kal kata rate kuvalay hate

Blue lotus in hand, late last night
At the grove washed with moonlight,
You had arrived.
Deep asleep was I; upon the mirror of mind
You had sat, but I have no sight.

Explaining what is understood does not work;
As much as heard, it is not learned.
Sweetness golden, in a cage it does not endure;
All of it floats away, stream of memory alike.

This my pain, did You not fathom it?
Tale of mine, did You not hear it?
Your own atom, could You not recognize it?
Is that why You'd simply smiled?
