O Lord,
I kept awake the whole night,
awaiting You,
but You did not come.

You were in an unknown world
and went away to an unknown world,
without saying anything.

Many days and nights passed by.
My garland of shefa'li flowers dried up.

The flowers in my chignon withered away
but still, You did not come into my fold.

You did not mention Your coming and staying,
neither did You forget about it.
You did not You show any displeasure about it either.

If You want, stay in my heart forever
but do not forget my love.


.........................................................

I kept long vigils waiting for You to arrive.
But You did not come to me, O Lord.

You came from an unknown realm,
And You left for an unknown realm.
But You did not tell me where You went.

How many days have passed!
How many nights!
The shephali flower garland has withered
The flowers in my hair have faded and fallen on the ground.

You never came within my reach.
I will not entreat You to come to me,
I will not beg You to remain with me.
Nor will I take any offence over it.

If You wish, stay with me always
but do not forget my love.




O Lord,
I have kept awake the whole night,
in expectation of You,
but You did not come.

You were in an unknown world,
and, without saying a word,
went back to an unknown world.

How many days and nights have passed?
The garland of shefa'li flowers has dried up.
The flowers in my chignon have withered away.
But You never came into my fold.

You did not tell anything
about Your coming or Your staying,
nor did You show any displeasure over it.

If You want , forever stay in my heart
but do not forget my love.
