Translation
Oh my Lord, my Darling,
For You only
Eyes do stream constantly.
You've gone to some distant place,
Leaving me behind on river bank.
My love, it knows You only;
My song is for You to please.
All my pride and whatever vanity,
It revolves round and around Thee.
Could it be I did not make any effort–
In me was no merit or propitious thought?
Is that why, leaving me, You went far away–
Why You left, and back You never came?
