Today, in the arbor of floral beauty,
in whose mind, does this morning appear?

Amidst the effulgence of light in the microcosmic mind,
the infinite and divine illusive game unfolds.

Who came with the sandal fragrance,
appearing with pleasing sweetness?
He came amidst colours
and charmed with affection.

The nectar of mind overflows.
The ocean of feelings dances.
For Him, none is distant.
There exits neither good nor bad time.
He intoxicates all.
