This garland of mine

(3224)  Jeo na rakho mor katha

Please don't leave, to my request acquiesce;
Just another watch,^[1] go on staying–
Go on staying, Love, go on staying.
Only its message, the garland I have threaded,
To give ear, simply pay heed.

Having given floral necklace, feet embraced,
To detain at my home, I don't crave.
With calm feet, go off to Your own place;
Not a single word will I speak.

In the mental mirror with tears bathed,
I have strung a garland only for Your sake.
This my wreath carries love's burden;
Nowhere in it is there pain or grief.
