Tukaram, Poem 1558

While I address Thee, thou standest with
Thy back to me; I know well Thy thoughts
towards me. What I ask I receive not, because
I am displeasing to thee; I have no right to any
courtesy from thee. Thou hast turned thy ear
towards me to preserve peace between us; but
thou hast stolen away, it seems, thy thoughts.
Tuka says, I understand Thy cunning ways, thy
pretences.
