Healer, Star-Moon, come to the chamber's keep,
Healer, Star-Moon, come, secrets to sleep.
Give me five rupees, come, my soul to keep,
What aches, and where, this sorrow deep?
What aches, and where, this sorrow deep?
To speak of it is a mountain steep.
Healer, Star-Moon, come to the chamber's keep.
My state was not this, long ago,
Oh, woe is me, how did this grow?
Like a nightingale in gardens, I'd flow,
Like a nightingale in gardens, I'd flow.
My own kin, a cage did bestow,
My own heart, a cage did bestow.
I understand, oh, the seeds they sow,
Imprisoned now, come, my woes to show.
Healer, Star-Moon, come to the chamber's keep,
Give me five rupees, come, my soul to keep.
In dreams and thought, a form appears,
In dreams and thought, a form appears,
Stealing sleep, and drying my tears,
Stealing sleep, and drying my tears.
My own heart now, it trembles, it fears,
What flame now ignites, through passing years?
One found favor, now my heart he steers,
Healer, Star-Moon, come, dry away my tears.
Give me five rupees, come, my soul to keep.
This restlessness, it won't let me be,
This restlessness, oh, misery!
This restlessness, it won't let me be,
How will this sickness ever flee?
How will this sickness ever flee?
A pill you give, or needle, you decree,
However, this pain, set my spirit free,
Give me sweets, come to my decree.
Healer, Star-Moon, come to the chamber's keep,
What aches, and where, this sorrow deep?
What aches, and where, this sorrow deep?
To speak of it is a mountain steep.
Healer, Star-Moon, come to the chamber's keep.
Healer, Star-Moon, come to the chamber's keep.
