THE SEASON FOR MEETING THE BELOVED HAS ARRIVED,
peeyaa milan, kee rut aayee,
THE SEASON FOR MEETING THE BELOVED HAS ARRIVED,
NASIR
Let all thy joys be as the month of May
And all thy days be as marriage Day
Let sorrow, sickness and a troubled mind
Be stranger to thee.
To a Bride: Francis Quarles, 1635.
