Another Ode to My Beloved Wife
Saroj
(after 18 months of her passing away)
I just want to turn back the clock of my
life to when I heard her say,
That I could be her charming prince
and she would love me all day
What will I do you know, I would build
another Saroj Niwas as my nest
So that all the world could see me
rejoicing my love life again with my
guest
My lovely princess that I chose will live
forever with me to start my life anew
I will plant the soul of my pretty lotus
in the pond that will be bright and new
I will plant roses in the garden nearby
but there would be no thorns to pierce
my heart
All the shady trees will wipe my tears
and there would be stones to bruise my
heart
But I do not know how to turn back the
clock that have stolen the hours away
I know not how to remove the thorns
and rocks that are hurting me everyday
I want to live that same love life once
again but I am told that gone is that
day
If I want to do this, I will have to slay
the dragon that takes human life away
Prince Lakhan and the Princess Saroj
will then live their love life forever as
they want
No dragon would ever come to separate
them but bless them to live, as they
want.
