2. Father
Father had found a groom for me
Before I turned twelve;
To consummate the marriage
He needed a little gold.
That's why he took up the ferry job.
He had searched for me the whole day
Finding no trace, resigned
That Yamuna had snatched me
From his love.
I found him in a pool of tears
In the mud before our li'l hut.
My shredded clothes and
bruised body devastated him.
Hearing the name Parasaran
Whose anger could leave
The whole village in ashes,
He shuddered again.
He just took me in his arms
And wept like a baby.
What could he do
Against such power!
A month passed, I found myself
Carrying the seed of the sin.
Silently, he took me away
Far from all the gazing eyes.
He told our neighbours
We were on a pilgrimage
To appease the Gods
So they blessed my marriage.
