Symbol
of womanhood flower stay,
Gift of
the Lord to human dismay,
unparalleled
tenderness existence,
The
glue to unite lives love intense, (2)
Soft

Why

Fabrics

Family

Another

World

This

Educated

Childbirth,

Blind

A

For

Dawn

Bangles

Women

The

Feminine

Fertile

Woman a

Rises

Her

The
Lord waits for garlands, a fan! (11)
