Analysis of Devote to an enigmatic lady



O! dear
     I never thought,
       I would love and be loved.

I never thought,
       my dreams would be again nourished with colourful dreams.

I never thought,
      i would  be again tantalised with the fragrance of someone's hair.

I never thought,
     i would again wake up from slumber.

Dear!
    You are to blame of it.

O, dear
   Please, let my life sway with dreams.
Don't let your Ruby lips utter anything, except to allow to kiss.

Let your eyes to shed tears,
so that it can flood all pangs of me.

Let your brest open for me,
so I can put my face
to forget all my futilities.

I know your beauty is inexplicable,
so I can't but devote my latent love.
