Not For Sale

She is a girl of beauty, there are admiring eyes
She is a girl of pride, there is respect for her ways
She is an obedient girl and parents seek a boy for her
Time to look for a boy in the matrimonial way
Time to look for one who makes a good living
He was advertised with job in hand
His profile matched their high expectation
Here comes the boy to see her
Here come his parents to look at her home
Here comes the mother with praise about her son
Here all along with the boasting of mum
They made the move to show their interest
They asked about assets that she had got
They wanted to know how much gold she will get
They requested money to teach her further
The girl’s family were concerned about the boy's job
The answer was he is going abroad soon
The talks went on and at last a decision was made
The girl’s family don’t want to go further with the alliance
My anger rose to hate the system to which I was tied
I admired the girls who sell themselves for earning
I salute those girls who made their marriage that way
All men who want money deserve a burden
