After the battle was won,
And the Suras defeated
Vrushaparva knelt before father.
.........Vrushaparva, the asura king.
Sharmishta was my playmate
But I, daughter of Shukraacharya
Earned more respect from the girls.
.........For, Kings knelt before him.
(16)
Then came Kacha, the handsome,
Father took him as his disciple
And I was happy for him.
Father said, he was son of
Brihaspati, the aacharya of Devas.
'What do I teach him
That his father cannot! '
(17)
I yearned to be with him always
Wander in the meadows with him
Listen to his wise little words,
Bore him by my chattering
On how kings and emperors
Bowed before my father.
Or simply sit looking into
His ocean-blue eyes till I fainted.
(18)
Kacha was learning fast
Father said, he's almost done with
I feared he would leave soon
His assignment completed.
..........I did not want him to leave, Ever.
(19)
Then came the storm.
The king asked father
To throw him out. For,
He was son of the Devaguru
And has come to us
To steal Mrutasanjeevani.
Father's anger knew no bounds.
For it is the Guru's prerogative
To chose his disciple.
