O King of Love's own city, come,
Come to me now,
To this door of sorrow,
Your bride now calls,
Your hermit calls.
A world has passed since we were parted,
O dearest love,
Beloved, show your face to me,
Your bride now calls,
Your hermit calls.
Come now, come.
In the cage of this world, I tremble,
I am that lone mynah,
I am that lone mynah.
For ages, monsoon's rain has fallen,
Within my restless eyes,
Within my restless eyes.
My body's color fades to yellow,
Embrace me, come,
Embrace me, come,
Your bride now calls,
Your hermit calls.
Come now, come.
What have I become, I ask you,
Come, see for yourself, Lord,
Come, see for yourself, Lord.
At every step, a cruel world has brought,
To me, only shame,
To me, only shame.
Hurry, come and meet, delay no more,
O my protector,
Come now, my protector,
Your bride now calls,
Your hermit calls.
O King of Love's own,
City, come,
Come to me now,
To this door of sorrow,
Your bride now calls,
Your hermit calls.
Come now, come.
