2983 Tell me (English poetry)

Tell me, should I call you fire or water divine?

Should I call you a tender bud or a blooming rose fine?


Who knows what fate awaits this love of mine?

Should I call my life ruined, or just let it shine?


My desire is your love, oh, how I wish for you.

Should I only dream of you or will you ever be mine?


Your beauty, your face, your youthful grace,

Should I write a poem or an entire book in your praise?


I received a letter where they confessed their love for me.

Tell me, what should my response to them be?


I’ve kept my heart’s feelings hidden deep inside.

Should I express them now, or just greet and hide?


You dwell in my heart; tell me, am I in yours too?

Should I call myself poor, or a king blessed by you?


Hide this treasure carefully, dear "Geet," within.

God has gifted you a wealth that's endless within.
