THE OLD LADY


                 Seeing an old lady bent over with age, a youth asked:

                 "what have you lost, search of which makes you sad?"

                  Replied old lady, "I lost my childhood in ignorance,

                    In my youth, like you, I was crazy and senseless,

                   Getting older when my body was losing its vigor,

                 I did not turn to God, in pursuit of fleeting pleasure.

                 Dalpatram is witness, bending over, in every corner,

                 I am now searching for my youth, gone for ever!
