राम

Remonstrances with God

English Translation · I.P. 388

IHAVE come to you with varied entreaties, yet you heed me not. O God, why should I form these deceitful hopes of you? You and I are parted; but now contemplation shall bring us together. Tuka says, Shameful is the fluctuating life of desire.

Tr. J. Nelson Fraser & K.B. Marathe (1909)
