Jai Govinda (poem)
(picture from source)
"You may as well tell as much truth as you know in poetry, because nobody makes any money off it ...)
Coleman Barks
After Mirabai
3.
Jai Govinda
Drunk with honey and wine,
you came last night
and lay beside me.
You slept close,
and that was enough.
This morning when I woke
I found you still there.
Now we have danced
the morning away,
forgetting to put on our clothes,
or even eat food.
