She who is always in my thoughts - Bhartrhari

She who is always in my thoughts prefers
Another man, and does not think of me.
Yet he seeks for another’s love, not hers;
And some poor girl is grieving for my sake.
Why then, the devil take
Both her and him; and love; and her; and me.

Bhartrhari (c.570 - c.651) India
