HOW SHALL l WORSHIP THEE?

What Shall I offer,
O! Kanaiya beloved,
In my worship of Thee?

No flowers have I with me,
It is only my humble love,
That I can proffer!

I know not any sacred book,
The book of love,
Is the volume I know!

I know not, how to play to Thee,
On guitar or the harp:
But in Thy quest,
Ever tinkles the tambour of my heart!

No incense or perfume,
Do I consecrate unto Thee:
Only I try to meditate,
On Thy vision unique!

No flute has Nuri Nimani,
To sing of her pledges:
She seeks only the dust,
Of the door of the sages!
