Glass Bangles
Dreaming of glass bangles behind the pearl of love,
Mumtaz! The beloved swallowed all the words.
Where she rests with her love.
Thousands everyday pay salutations to their tale.
Dreaming of glass bangles their reflection exposed,
Mirrored in sunrise and then portrayed in the market.
What shape or color will attract the beloved?
Is the Question? And who will convince the Queen?
Dreaming of glass bangles behind the pearl of love,
all lovers agree and gather like a storm in Mahal.
Who will exist and who will die now for the beloved.
A passionate lover is always blind.
One must wonder the Shah was the beloved and king
He almost destroy his wealth for the sake of love
Was he afraid of love or power?
Prince convicted by his beloved son and imprisoned till eternity.
And imprisoned till eternity.
The Shah unwept in the dark room,
His eyes on the pearl of love till death.
The beloved has given up all hopes,
Yes, they must sleep now .
The enemies of love are always there at the gate.
I dream behind the Taj Mahal.
