o sweet one ... o charming one!
let your sweetness
fill my thoughts,
like a river from the mountains!

o sweet one ... o charming one!
let your sweetness
fill my words,
like honey from the hives!

o sweet one ... o charming one!
let your sweetness
fill my heart,
like a mountain lake!

o sweet one ... o charming one!
let your sweetness
enlighten my every moment,
like the glowing sun on the seashore!

o sweet one ... o charming one,
your song fills my heart with sweetness,
your flute fills my mind with sweetness,
o sweet one ... o my everything!

“O Sweet One!” came to my mind, few years back, during one of my runs along the Bondi coastal walk in Sydney and while listening to Madhurāṣṭakam. By Krishna’s grace and based on YouTube’s algorithm I found this soulful rendition of Madhurāṣṭakam shot at the same place. The Lord works in strange yet beautiful ways! 🙂
