Pranams.
I was reading a book review of Norton's Anthology of Religion by Wiliam Darlymple (reviewer).

and

In Vol 1 review he (the reviewer) quoted the following song from Annamayya - I want to now what was the actual song? Better yet a youtube rendition of this song will be nicer
What use is ecstasy
without the agony of separation?
Shade is nothing without the burning sun.
What is patience without the fury of
passion?
Why make anything — love or poetry —
if two can’t be one?

"UrulEni polimEra pEru peMpulEni bratuku".
