Audio: Kabir SumanYou long to hear me sing
Is that why you keep me astir
All night, my sleep-hunter,
You who spark awake my sorrow!
Twilight overcasts,
Birds retire to nest,
Boats row back to shore;
Yet my heart finds no rest,
You who spark awake my sorrow!
You let my tears flow endlessly
Interspersed between my tireless tasks
You touch me, filling my goblet
With unearthly grace
And then, disappear --
I wonder if you remain unseen
Behind my wall of pain,
You who spark awake my sorrow!
You who arouse me from slumber
