It is to be serious
not much ambiguous
a thought on an issue
could be of any tissue
be a selection in general
of a bride and a groom in lateral
a pick and a choose in Indian communities
the parents search and hunt with diligence and dignity
go by the horoscope, the family and smartness
a difficult predicament in the wilderness
as of the religion, caste and status also intrude
a prolonged follow up usurps the finalizing
if all seem to coordinate and converge
the looks and the dowry would cross in the verge
the strain the parents undergo overwhelms considerably
the exhaustion hastens the conclusion reliably
comes then the execution in a grand scale
another thorn in the flesh to tell the tale
all set and done the marriages take place
lasted all through in years of yore with grace
nowadays there provokes a fall out all too soon
the boy and the girl call it quits casting a doom
this be the cross section of society on the whole
with tradition and modernity taking the toll
the east and west would never meet
either be it east in full and turn sweet
or be westernized in all with less principles
a mixture of both would throw you out in principal
let the Indian community adopt a structural pact
well, that should be incredibly tact.
t was a sack that lay on the middle
