Old record player playing

Fragrance of incense sticks

Our hall full of people in white

The site of shroud shivered my bones

Overwhelmed with grief

 

Under that shroud was the person I loved

The woman in red

Ornamented with jewellery

With vermilion on her forehead

The lady in red left me pale

 

My idol, my friend, my soulmate

Where have you gone?

Why did you empty my vessel of love?

The pillar of my life is removed

Nobody to console me

 

Your perfumes, dresses and jewellery

All comprise your presence

Your divine presence will again wake me up...

You left me in the crucial stage of life

But I pledge

I'll walk on the path you showed me

I'll fulfill your dreams

Mom! I love you

 

No one with me

Neither you nor dad

Captivated under my uncles

Striving to save my inherited wealth

All were demons under mortal skin

You both left me

But I’m still here

Paving my way towards success

 

My life is incomplete without you

I'm swallowing emptiness every moment

Mom and dad I love you

I'll miss you

But will enjoy your heavenly presence together

Just like an angel and her partner
