One Indian girl



Hey you wanna know bout me
I'm an Indian girl who live in Delhi
All my life I was being nerdy
Some say I am freaky
My friends says I'm geeky

In school I was an introvert
I never bother about that
Cos I'm more than that
My dad tells me that

I only focused on my career
I became an hurdler
I fought every Barrier
I became a winner

I achieve what my father couldn't achieve
My mother thought I was into some sort of mischief
I became commutative
I became my own chief

I soared higher
In my banking career
My income going higher
Scaring away a lot of admirers

Then my mum asked me
"When are you going to marry?
All your mates are married
Pls do not tarry"

Then I found a lover
Whose status was lower
It was all a splinter
Cos he didn't want me to hover

I had to pursue my career
Marriage won't be a barrier
