Just as the Rose can’t ignore the Nightingale forever, the Beloved too can’t un-love her lover for long, as the heart is beyond human control
For how long can the Rose
Ignore the Nightingale?
For how long can the Pearl
Abandon the Shell?
The clouds are heavy
Soon will they let go
Hence, not for long can she
Un-love her lingering lover
Neither the heart
Nor its beat
Nor its pain:
Remain in lovers’ rein
