When would that day be for me to join
My Lord of Gnostic flame, who is the Lord
Of rank gold spatium, sweet as milk
And honey, wearing a waxing crescent
Upon His crest on which are abhishekams
Done with Cow-given offers, having
For His Half Parvati mild, simple
With deer-eyed glances tremulous sweet.
Translation: S. A. Sankaranarayanan,(2007)
