Oh! My maiden
You are elegant in your rainbow dress,
with dazzling colors that gives, us bliss
The angels might have thrown a magical spell
To dress you high, in seven colors well
Ready to welcome the sparkling sun,
Your attire bids adieu, to the rain that won
You make the flowers feel envious of you;
With your shimming and shimmering body blue.
The faires are stummed at your sheerly look,
They cheer you up, with their hymnal
But, oh! My maiden- I am sorry to say!
That, you are fooled, in a ridiculous way
Don’t be proud of your beautiful attire
The humans beneath are of various desires
The world is filled with atrocious men,
Who can change their minds, as fast as they can
Rush out fast to find a place-OR,
You might be petrified, by the human race
I bid adieu to you- my fairest maiden……….!
