With too many hopes you go to a beauty parlor,
A makeup artist and a costly truthful mirror,
The mirror makes you restless and puts in fears.
What's written in your fate smiles or tears.
Shall anyone look at you and admire,
Or ignore you to be burnt in a fire,
In a gathering of beautiful faces,
Who will find out your inner graces,
Why don't you try the waiting eyes,
At a lonely place below the open skies.
Why don't you try one who loves you,
Knows your inner beauty and deserves you,
The eyes of a lover with a heart that is lonely,
Look into his eyes, yours wholly and solely.
A beautiful heart, you are not an ordinary woman,
An extra ordinary woman deserves a lovely man.
