How the days drag
before union with the man of my heart! Round the hours of the day and night as the rain-bird, chataka, watches the clouds, I gaze at the black-moon hoping to surrender myself at his feet--in vain. Like lightning flashing through the clouds and hiding in the clouds never to be found again, I saw his beauty flashing through my dreams and I lost Krishna.
