Here I am at a point of life junction
Waiting to choose from a range of nice options;
Stuck among girls of diverse features
But one to go with me into the future.
_
One is blessed with such a pretty face
Ever noticed for her dazzling gait
Pleasing me with her gentle smile
Like the smooth flow of the river Nile.
_
One is rich and affluent indeed
Ready to help in my times of need
Willing to give up her whole possessions
If I show her my own affection.
_
One is gentle and so kind
And with her my peace I find.
Though I am an insatiable man
She cares for me as much as she can.
_
One obeys religious instructions
And offers me spiritual directions.
She stands to pray at daybreak
And gives out alms for her Lord’s sake.
_
Am I greedy to choose the wealthy
Or lustful to go for beauty?
Shall I make my choice for manners
Or my faith is all that matters?
