A mother serves her sugar with
A bit of peppermint
To clarify the passages
That carry what she meant
When she first set to bear a soul
Quite separate from her own,
Whom she would cherish, yet must teach
To live and die alone.
Ye ladki bhi ek ajeeb paheli hai,
kabhi teri to kabhi ye meri saheli hai,
paise kharcho to kahti hai darling i love you,
nahi to sorry brother who are you.
