Seduction Of Sita, Wife Of Rama Poem by Ravi Kopra

Surrounded by ogresses
Sita is miserable, full of sorrows.
Ravana approaches her, saying:
Your legs are beautiful like

The elephants' trunks
Do not fear me, my lovely
Cover not your breasts and belly
Do not hide yourself from me.

O beauty with big eyes!
You body pleases me.
I desire you, O lovely one!
Honor me, be my love.

O Sita, no man or devil can
Change from whatever he is.
Fear me not. Abducting others'
Wives is the ogres' rightful right.

No second thoughts. It's simply
like this: no matter what
you may think of me
I want you close to me.

Only in lust will I touch you
O queen of my heart!
Fear me not, O love!
Trust me, I'll not hurt you.

Always in your only sari
On hard ground you sleep
Meditating in dirty dresses
And fasting you always weep.

I have for you beautiful dresses,
Ornaments, Agallochums,
Soft beds, sandals, garlands,
Songs, music and drinks.

O gem of a woman!
Put on some makeup, put on ornaments.
O the most beautiful one!
I'll give you all luxuries.
