In this autumnal wind,
the One who the mind longs for,
remains far.

My mind, afflicted with pains,
rushes towards the path of His arrival.

Why, why, why is He so far?
Whoever knows why, tell me!

I am intoxicated by His ideation,
unable to forget.
In this lonely moonlit night,
I am dying from pangs of separation.

Into my ears, the honeybee whispers
melodious songs of optimism.
