Dec 2014
An actor she became at an early age
When brother got all the praise,
She wiped off all the sorrow from her face.
Behold my friends! the time had come,
The sole reason of her survival,
It was marriage alas!
Baba said from a good family he hails,
But the lash marks on her back told other tales.
Then came nine months of misery
A girl it was! all was in vain.
Her son kicked her out at the age of sixty
On the bed of that old age home,
Her last breaths were hasty.
And she said,
'Dear God, don't make me a daughter of Eve,
Dear God, don't make me a daughter of Eve,
A son of Adam to be I plead.'
