Please let me believe

(3288) Alokotsave esechile

You had come with gala of effulgence;
Making dark, please don't go off.
You had heard invite of those afflicted,
Even though there'd been no pious, sacred effort.

You've remained pervading both Earth and Heaven;
And to the mind's mirror You have surrendered.
Beauty You've brought in the external realm;
That beauty please do not withdraw.

What You think or don't think, I know nothing;
Musing on welfare You remain, simply this I believe.
Language of hope You infuse, fondness enticing;
Never rend that thread of love!
