Flour and rice, lentils too, hunger's call,
A hearth absent, a towering wall.
Flour and rice, lentils too, hunger's plea,
A hearth missing, a deep agony.

Clouds gather, rain descends, lightning's flash,
The monsoon's dance, a watery crash.
Clouds gather, rain descends, lightning's fire,
No swing to sway, fueling desire.

We two, petitioners, freedom's sweet grace,
In secret rendezvous, we hide our face.
Boy and girl, a groom, a blushing bride,
No priest to join, nowhere to confide.

If boy and girl were birds in the wood,
Roosters and hens as lovers stood,
Meeting whenever, wherever they please,
A hidden love, rustling the trees.
A guard, a curtain, a veiled display,
No sweet halwa brightens the day.
A guard, a curtain, a secret show,
No halwa offered, the spirits low.

See the band, the drums, the wedding's sway,
Come, my king, to the marriage day!
Upon what steed shall my love appear?
Jungle, lion, tiger, bear,
No horse available, a heavy fear.
Jungle, lion, tiger, bear,
No horse to mount, a tear.

Your pairing's beauty, a moon and a dove,
Never seen, such a passionate love.
Hero, heroine, villain's dark plot,
No camera to capture, a chance forgot.
Hero, heroine, a villain's threat,
No camera to film, a deep regret.

My heart you broke, yours I did forsake,
Your love returned, for goodness sake.
Traveler, destination, the carriage waits,
No road to guide, sealing our fates.
Traveler, destination, the carriage rolls,
No road to travel, burdens our souls.

A small drink taken, to face your sire,
Yet fear grips me, caught in the fire.
Whiskey, soda, thirst’s burning ache,
No permit granted, for goodness sake.
Whiskey, soda, water's plea,
No license offered, how to be free?
Yes, a great hardship, a challenge to face,
Yes, a great hardship, in this desolate place.
