 With clouds full of rain, the lightning flashing,
-You had arrived at dark midnight.{{#tag:ref|An alternate translation here would be: "Krsna, You'd arrived late at night." Clearly, the use of the word, ''Krśńá'', in this line is not accidental. The conditions described match those associated with Krsna's birth.

+You had smiled in mirror of my mind.
-I was looking within the material world
+I was looking in the material world
 To find bliss through objects inert.
 Not once did I gaze at Your face;
-I did not see that You'd returned.
+I did not see that You returned.
 Mad was I, with my own self obsessed,
-Just liking to think of personal interest.
+Liking to think only of personal interest.
 I did not consider Your resolute aim,
-The very quintessence of Your existence.
+That You were its very quintessence.
