Title:
IN VAIN I LOVED AND GAVE MY HEART
|
IN VAIN I LOVED AND GAVE MY HEART
In vain I loved and gave my heart.
What folly, woeful, on my part!
Love remained from me just too far.
It left but a scandalous scar.
My love’s fate could not have been worse.
Now my life is, itself, a curse.
I, too, had my love ambitions,
Now reduced to sad renditions.
For some, love is a rosy bloom;
For me, it was simply my doom.
I had dreamed that someone’s sweet love
Would shade me from the scorch above.
But when awake, I was alone.
Shadows darkened; the day was gone.
· Written in aa, 8-8 format
· Translated from/patterned on the popular Hindi movie song of the sixties, given below.
