Translation

```

You will keep and feed

My heart-bird.

You will stop my heart’s pangs

And extinguish the tear-flames of my eyes.

You will satisfy my hungry life,

O Lord of Compassion.

I know all these and many more

And yet why do I torture You,

Your heart of Compassion-Light?

I completely forget

Your nectar message.

I draw into my heart

The measureless gloom of ignorance-night.

```
