The Arrow Of Desire Has Pierced My Heart!

The arrow of desire has pierced my heart! I kept awake whole night, friend, weeping miserably! I wait for him, here in the courtyard for a moment For a moment there at the temple Or on the veranda desolately! To whom but to my love, can I speak my heart, friend! The arrow of desire has pierced my heart! If my love arrives now, how will I contain the sheer joy? Passionately will I clasp the Narsaiyya's lord to my heart, dear friend! The arrow of desire has pierced my heart! I kept awake whole night, friend, weeping miserably!
