Translation by Louis Renou (1896 - 1966)
La Liane
Language: French (Français) after the Hindi (हिन्दी)
Comme la liane tient l'arbre embrassé de part en part, ainsi m'embrasse, sois mon amante et ne t'écarte pas de moi ! Comme l'aigle pour s'élancer frappe au sol de ses deux ailes, ainsi je frappe à ton âme : sois mon amante et ne t'écarte pas de moi ! Comme le soleil un même jour entoure le ciel et la terre, ainsi j'entoure ton âme : stie lecat pas de moi !
