I was brought to your house as your wife
And ma (mother) said my job was to see through your eyes.

You were as complicated as an encrypted code,
So I thought our arranged marriage was at fault.

I was 18 and you were 20 when they got us married,
So it took me a while to understand what was a marriage.

You always acted distant and seemed to hold bitter feeling of resentment towards our marriage,
But it didn't take me long to understand your reasons when I overheard your parents.

They said they got you married so that you give up on singing,
Find a decent job to start earning.

How could I let your parents take away your dreams,
When you fought with them to let me continue studying so that at least I get to chase my dreams.

For me, You took the bullets
When I couldn't dodge them,
You held the small umbrella we had, on my head,
And chose to get drenched instead.

You kept me warm when I was shivering to death,
And now you expect me to stay quiet when they
are about to take away what keeps you alive ?.

Wait for few more years,
soon I would be capable enough,
to support both of us.
Then you could set out,
To chase what you dreamt of,
While I will tell our children
What our marriage is made of.
