Eternal Love
Come, dear Krishna!
Fall in love with my love for you.
When my honey- filled glance dips your unsurpassed beauty, fall in love with my eyes.
Fall in love with my imperishable ardour for you.
When my feet dance to the tunes of your flute, fall in love with the music of my anklets.
You are the colossal cosmos and I'm an infinitesimal splinter
You are the sweetness in a mellowed fruit and I'm the wrinkle on a withered flower.
You are the dream of every soul and I'm a forsaken lonely petal
But, oh darling! when you assimilate me into you, we become one.
Melt in the music of my longing for you
Fill the flute of my desolate heart with your benign breath
Kindle my lame soul with the shimmer of your smile
Let's sing, let's swing and let's dissolve in this darkness tonight.
