On Your Wedding Day Poem by Bashyam Narayanan

On your wedding day
It gives me a chance to say
And wish that united you stay
For many, many, many more years in gay

I know the love between you
Stays fresh as the morning dew
Glittering in the bright sun’s view
It will ever have its glamour and hue

The day you were solemnized
As husband and wife, was indeed recognized
As a new value system got institutionalized
For the entire human race, though personalized

It was a different path altogether
From the day that year you both became one-for-the-other
But you both in unison made your way to gather
Experiences of life whether pleasant or with issues to bother

You created new values to living
Ensured continuity of human being
Implanted great characters in your offspring
Your efforts praiseworthy in their upbringing

You two are a model family builder
It is not just made of brick and boulder
But built by the right mix of love tender
With strict adherence to great values to ponder

We all need to thank you, great couple
For holding high the stay-ever-in-love principle
That makes your residence a temple
Where your bond makes divine presence twinkle
