She says, "More than an ocean Of love my eyes created And now their eyelids are not closed But open, thus undergoing a lot of troubles." *** Balraj: Her eyelids are always open gazing the roof. Natwar: When her eyelids are open Her eyes are also always open. When he's inside her eye vision, How can she sleep then? She has mental worries, With her eyes in troubles, As he appears in her eyes, To close them, when she tries. This kind of love sickness, Never had she even in her dreams, After he entered her life only Now she feels it lonely. *** 118/06. ஓஓ இனிதே எமக்கிந்நோய் செய்தகண் தாஅம் இதற்பட் டது. 118/06.

Let them suffer." *** Balraj: She is cursing her eyes to suffer as they made her suffer. Natwar: Her poor eyes have no sense, To hear her melancholy voice, But they shed their tears As a response to her feelings. If they know what for she feels They can console her emotions But they're only windows Working as outlets and inlets. They receive what they see outside, And take them to her mind inside, But her poor eyes, she blames, As her chosen handy victims. ***
