Song By Gulbaz Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AA BB BB BB AA CC BBIs it safe to lie so lonely when the summer twilight closes | A |
No companion maidens only you asleep among the roses | A |
- | |
Thirteen fourteen years you number and your hair is soft and scented | B |
Perilous is such a slumber in the twilight all untented | B |
- | |
Lonely loveliness means danger lying in your rose leaf nest | B |
What if some young passing stranger broke into your careless rest | B |
- | |
But she would not heed the warning lay alone serene and slight | B |
Till the rosy spears of morning slew the darkness of the night | B |
- | |
Young love walking softly found her in the scented shady closes | A |
Threw his ardent arms around her kissed her lips beneath the roses | A |
- | |
And she said with smiles and blushes Would that I had sooner known | C |
Never now the morning thrushes wake and find me all alone | C |
- | |
Since you said the rose leaf cover sweet protection gave but slight | B |
I have found this dear young lover to protect me through the night | B |
