Mira Is Jasmine

To love a Yogi, O sister, is to love only sorrow.
He murmurs sweet words while he is with you,
Then forgets and departs.
For the Yogi, a sprig of Jasmine
Is easily plucked, easily dropped.
Mira says to her lord, bring back your beauty.
When I can't see you, that absence knifes open my
heart.


- MIRABAI, ecstatic poems
