Being a Goddess
You too are shackled in fetters
Never ever had I thought
enchained body of an idol
within any manacle
Devilish would
this thinking be
to seek freedom with love of thee
within the sorrowful flood
is you
How may I hope
joy from you.
-Vimal Kumar's Hindi poem "प्रेम कैद" translated into English by Varsha Singh as "Love Imprison"
