An English, pure English girl
Had I dreamt of
Loving,
Marrying,
Bringing home,
But as it happens generally,
Man proposes and God disposes,
I could not go to foreign
And could not bring an English girl
As I had to be complacent
With an Indian girl
Even after learning English well,
But many go t it
Even without knowing English
And moving out to foreign,
But now think I,
God is right for
Not giving me an English girl
As she would have felt uncomfortable
In India,
Under Indian climatic conditions,
Heat and humidity
And dust would have ruffled her
Badly to sustain it a living here.
