Come To My Pavilion

Mirabai 1498 (Kudki, Pali district, Jodhpur State) – 1556 (Dwaraka)



Come to my pavilion, O my King.
I have spread a bedmade of
delicately selected buds and blossoms,
And have arrayed myself in bridal garb
From head to toe.
I have been Thy slave during many births,
Thou art the be-all of my existence.
Mira's Lord is Hari, the Indestructible.
Come, grant me Thy sight at once.
