Radha’s Passion

Why do you now try in vain
O, my somber-hued Love
To quell my bitter tears of pain
With a few sweet kisses
Sweetness-soaked embraces
Abundant words of allegiance
How will all these ever suffice
To spare me throes of separation
Pain of parting sears me now
As raging flames of wilderness
Why do you try dousing it
With these tender dewy blooms!
