Enlightened bride

Suitors many line up

With their pranks and tricks

To woo the bride but one

They try to read her mind

And make a place in her heart

But she is shrewd  enough

And weighs all pros and cons

The one who ultimately wins

Is undoubtedly the most deserving

Who takes the bride along

To the envy of one and all

She is your beloved, dear bridegroom

But she is our heart and soul

Our aspirations, our vision and what not

Mandate we have given you in her

The most precious jewel of all

Now you are under watch 

The bride shall keep you on toes

And scrutinize you from close

So beware, and take good care

You appear to be made for each other

The need of the times, its vision and dream

You have worked very hard for it

We have also waited patiently enough

Such a match is very rare to come by

Now is the opportunity to create and give shape

To the dreams of the enlightened bride

And her millions of bride maids

That shall be your justification

To our democratic and popular mandate!
