To a sweetheart in separation

Filling the eyes with tears looking like fruits of jujube tree,
what is the cause for feeling pain for the vision?

Illuminating the lonely temple with a lamp,
waiting day and night for Him,
what is the reason for being perplexed, feeling depressed and miserable?

Thy satisfaction should rest with agony; a
nd in streams of tears should by thy life.  
For neither transaction nor compensation this is.

O my sweetheart with the face lovelier than lily!  
Derive pleasure from this silent pain of thine!  
Thy beloved will never be able to loose
the good luck of bathing into the river of thy love.  
And surely, in course of time,
thy beloved also will not be able to breath without the self of thine.

- Shri Yogeshwarji
