How I yearned for You
shedding copious tears.
Couldn't You hear my pleas?
You want to make me weep
and willingly ignore me.
Ceaselessly, night and day
flow torrential tears
like the peak of summer rains.
And You smile
indifferently,
O hardhearted one.
I shall weave
from my mind
a garland of tears
and offer it to You.
Let me see
whether You
will wear it
or not.
