  1. Here is a bhakti poem attributed to Mirabai:

I saw the dark clouds burst,

dark Lord,

Saw the clouds and tumbling down

In black and yellow streams

they thicken,

Rain and rain two hours long.

See—

eyes see only rain and water,

watering the thirsty earth green.

Me—

love's in a distant land

and wet, I stubbornly stand at the door,

For Hari is indelibly green,

Mira's Lord,

And he has invited a standing,

stubborn love.
