11. TWO UNLUCKY SOULS

Lord, how long
   Can we endure our separation?
Let us settle our dispute
   Once and for all.
I shall share with You
What I have: ignorance-night.
You shall share with me
What You have: Nectar-light.

Daughter, I try and cry,
   Cry and try,
To share with you.
      But
You neither receive
   My cherished treasure,
Nor do you share
   Your treasure with Me;
      Therefore
We play the role of
Two unlucky souls
   And two helpless lives.
