Life's kiss awakens the earth from sleep,
the heroine earth begins her morning raga in Bhairav…
In the prisoner's eyes stirs some ancient sin.
This man—this circumambulation of the earth belongs to their geography;
the man knows then, the heroine is no longer his…
Heaped with sins, bearing meanings grown still,
she awakens and remains in the heroine's mind!
Life became lover in spring's innocent quiver.
This man is still sinful—dead!
The dead one's silent eyes had said this:
"This spring is full of weeping."
