Oh! My Sole Betrayer! Poem by Sphoorthi Padmini Rangarajan

I trusted you more than self,
I believed you more than self,
I considered you more than self,
You betrayed me oh! Betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other.

A cow that ran to rescue herself,
From wolf fell into the hands of a butcher,
Oh! Butcher the betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other.

Ran to save myself from thunder,
Took shelter under a ruin temple,
Temple collapsed upon,
Oh! Temple the betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other.

In a boat rowing to the other side of the shore,
Wild wind blowing high,
Feared and held boat man,
He shook his hand and I fell in the water,
Oh! Boatman the betrayer!

I look around, find every one betraying.
Betraying each other, betraying each other
