Woman - A Symbol Of Sacrifice And Love Poem by Bireswar Halder

When I was mired in anguish and sorrow
And no light of hope breathed in despair
When utter gloom was stalking me all along
You were to me like a stick of the blind.

When I lost goal worth the name for my life
And there was none to guide me in distress
When I was adrift as a rudderless boat
You came to my life as a guide and rescuer.

When I was lamenting over my wounds
And I was intoxicated with senseless joys
When I was reduced to a spiritless animal
You came to my life as an elixir for strength.

When I was a vagabond and bankrupt
And indulgently leading a wayward life
Having no love, no sympathy from anyone
You came to my life with love and care.

Oh dear, your company showers on me a new life
Your sacrifice to make me happy grew
I still don't know your real identity, dear
But you're a queen of glory, a crown of sacrifice.
