A thousand years later

When everyone goes to sleep-
My eyes will not sleep,
These two eyes of mine remain-
To see you awake at a glance…

Maybe you’ll think of me…
My walk is from time to time,
Memories will float, pain in the heart-
Will wake up in a beautiful, sad tone.

Don’t let me die! Still, stay alive-
Your hearts become stars in the sky,
It won’t be a conversation; I’ll still talk.
May the sorrow in your heart and soul conquer!

I will not remain alive; my two eyes will remain alive-
I will look into your heart’s eyes,
Forgive my mistakes-
My image remains in your eyes and face.

All the sadhanas are held in the corner of my heart-
I will go, counting the hours of expectation,
My eyes, a thousand years later,
Just looking into your eyes…
