YA

My foolish love went seeking thee at dawn, Crying — O wind where is Kanhaya gone?

YA

I questioned at noonrise the forest glade, Rests my sweet lover in thy friendly shade?

YA

Dumb were the waters, dumb the woods, the wind, They knew not where my playfellow to find.

YA

I bowed my weeping face upon my palm, Moaning — O where art thou, my Ghanashyam?

YA

Then, like a boat that rocks from keel to rafter,

YA

My heart was shaken by thy hidden laughter.

YA

Then didst thou mock me with thy tender malice,

YA

Like nectar bubbling from my own heart's chalice.

YA

Thou saidst, — O faithless one, self-slain with doubt,

YA

Why seekest thou my loveliness without,

YA

And askest wind or wave or flowering dell

YA

The secret that within thyself doth dwell?

YA

I am of thee, as thou of me, a part.

Look for me in the mirror of thy heart.
