Durga In She

Warm, sheltered frame, tender heart,

Little girl delightedly arrives in the world.

Bright and joyful, safe and secure, she believed,

As men bow down and pray to the She lord.

 

Her home filled with love and faith

Brilliantly safeguarded her wholeness

Curiously pondered on the world outside the home,

Would be bright and joyful, safe, and secure.

As men bow down and pray to the She lord.

 

Stepped outside her blessed shield

Got entangled in the scary ropes.

The beautiful world suddenly played a cruel role.

Whenever she ran, many watched her go

Many minds, eyes, strength shackled her soul

Once the safe and the secure world

Became the unguarded, unheard, and unsaid hall.

Still, men bow down and pray to the She Lord.

 

Many touched her and go

Play with her extant and throw

Bruised heart, wounded skin

She kept herself dragging, seeking her home

They failed to feel love, passion, and peace

Courage and devotion dwelling within

Still, men bow down and pray to the She Lord.

 

Men worship Lord Durga with the feel

But don’t succeed to see her essence in every being.

Daughter, mother, wife, friend, colleague

Every girl carries Durga in their will

And men bow down and pray the She Lord.
