Why do I remember my alien beloved?
Wow! Radiant, sparkling mirror of moon
Where spick-and-span looks every boon
Where dream-like image is foggy soon
Why do I remember my alien beloved?
When the sun is folded by light breeze
When cuckoo carols with piercing tune
When the sky is lightened with moon
Why do I remember my alien beloved?
When an outburst of grief is gruesome
When the passions are not overcome
Such a beauty I had seen is seldom
Why do I remember my alien beloved?
When memories of past haunt my mind
Like numerous clouds in the sky we find
When the distressed heart is left behind
Why do I remember my alien beloved?
