I don’t look for myself and
I look for something else.
My mind doesn’t go with anyone
It only follows you.
I don’t enjoy the words of others
I enjoy your color.

I search for you in this direction
and that direction in a happy voice.
The dew of the morning,
the rays of the morning,
The constellations of the sun.
The illusion of the afternoon,
the evening breeze,
The smile of the moon at dusk.

Whatever else there is –
the treasure of the selfless nature
The mind wants to bring everything,
give it to you with great care,
again and again.

Yet it seems – this is not much,
I hope to give more.
Alas! What kind of addiction is this,
what kind of love is this!
What a disaster this is!
