There is a veil that stands between us
The veil of immortality
Either descend in a human form
Or let immortality adorn me
Bless me with this union, I have waited for too long,
See Mira validates it by singing this song
If Death can unite us then,
I'll embrace it as an old friend
I dream of my arms in your embrace, curled,
My heart is immune to this world
A world which is devoid of you
Where love and devotion have no value
They are in want of a good wife, a good daughter
I am not that, I am just a devotee
You are Mira's Lord, this Earth is your ever flourishing garden
Come liberate me off this burden
Don't forget your promise, come break this veil,
My Lord, or else my aching heart would never heal...
