O my ascetic bumblebee,
Do not torment me.
Do not wound
Kali's tiny heart,
O my ascetic bumblebee,
Do not torment me.
A wind from the east arrived,
The season filled with hues,
Lightning flashed.
A wind from the east arrived,
The season filled with hues,
Lightning flashed.
I am the monsoon cloud,
You, my love, the mountain of love.
I long to pour down,
I long to pour down,
Quench your thirst,
O my ascetic bumblebee,
Do not torment me.
Without your love,
My beauty will remain defiled,
Without your love,
My beauty will remain defiled.
For how many days will Kali
Bear my name?
I will become a flower,
I will become a flower,
Bloom and embrace me,
O my ascetic bumblebee,
Do not torment me.
Oh, met as a dream, and
Departed like a shadow,
Met as a dream, and
Departed like a shadow.
If this was your intent, then why
Did you turn the dewdrop into a flame?
You lit the fire,
You lit the fire,
Now extinguish this fire,
O my ascetic bumblebee,
Do not torment me.
Do not wound
Kali's tiny heart.
