But if I try to run away, she will get me caught.(41)
So praise it
‘It will be better if I praise her and through dramatisation get rid of her.
‘Without agreeing to commit sex, she will kill me.
‘I wish some disciple of mine could come and save me.’(42)
Arril Chhand
(He said to her), ‘You are admirable and so are your mother and father.
‘Your country is commendable and commendable are your sustainers.
‘Your face, which is very pretty, is so meritorious,
‘That, even, the Lotus- flower, Sun, Moon and Cupid lose their vanity.(43)
‘Your body is blissful and your eyes are coquettish.
‘You are winsome to all, the birds, deer, beasts, reptiles and demons,
‘Shiva and all his four sons have languished by looking at your eyes.
‘But the strange phenomena is that your eyes have not been able to penetrate into my heart.’(44)
Savaiyya
(She replied,) ‘Cuddling you I will lie down on the bed and will never divulge this secret to anyone.
‘Frolicking thus, whole night will pass, and, even the Cupids play will seem trivial.
‘I am living on dreams (about you) and wake up afraid of losing you.
‘I would rather die, than to wake up from such a dream.’(45)
Dohira
Then she declared loudly and told, the Raja.
‘Either I will have sex with you or I will kill myself by taking poison.’(46)
(Raja,) ‘God has created your eyes like sharp arrows,
‘But He has endowed me modesty and that is why they cannot pierce me.(47)
‘Your eyes are penetrating and on the very first sight they oust the knowledge.
‘But for me, having no attraction for sex, they are merely like berries.’(48)
(She) ‘Worthy are those berries whom whole world can see,
‘And the trees, whose fruit people eat and go home satisfied.’(49)
Talking nonsensically, she was becoming impatient to meet her love.
Her each and every limb was demanding, because she was absolutely stung with the passion.(50)
Chhand
(Raja) ‘Since the time I realized the sense of maturity, which my Guru had taught,
“Aye My Son, so long as there is life m your body,
“You promise to enhance love with your own wife,
“But never, even by mistake, bed with else’s wife.(51)
“By relishing else’s wife, Inder, the god was showered with female genitals.
“By relishing else’s wife, Moon was blemished.
“By relishing else’s wife, Ten Headed Raawana lost all his ten heads.
“By relishing else’s wife all the clan of Korav was annihilated.(52)
“The love with else’s wife is like a sharp dagger.
“The love with else’s wife is an invitation to death.
“The one who thinks himself to be very brave and indulges carnally with else’s wife,
“He is killed in the hands of a coward like a dog.”(53)
“Listen lady! Women come to us from far off lands,
“They bow their heads and wish for boons.
“Those Sikhs (disciples) are like my sons and their wives like my daughters.
“Tell me, now, the pretty one, how could I copulate with them.”(54)
