Pradnya Surve
A new life in the family
Yet they lament
Why I this injustice to us
A curse it seems
This woman unable to bring joy
We need a heir
Not this encumbrance
The bane is soon shunted
To the corner most room
To protect the house from evil
It becomes her world
Childhood is just another word
The lady rejoices
She has got a bride for the blue boy
The golden goose has come
A lifelong assurance of wealth
As promised by the squire
With big bucks did he lure her
For on threshold of femininity
She would be in his vicinity
Childhood meanwhile Is filled with saccharinity
Human race evolved over time
Development and advancement paradigm
Patriarchy ever supreme
Sublime beings ancillary
Discrimination still reigns
Agony in tears drained
