YOUR JOYS MUST MULTIPLY ON THIS DAUGHTERS' DAY!
Why is your Gudu so good as you so confidently say?
For she's been, since birth, a part of our rainy day,
She has grown soaking our perpetual helplessness,
She has lived on our dried and parched bread of hopefulness!
Why is your Gudu so unique as you so emphatically claim?
For, she can, like her Mom, burn herself for brighter flame,
She can stay starved under circumstances sine complaints
She does nothing ever to have in our happiness pits and dents!
Why is your Gudu so special as you so contently blare?
For, she owns love, empathy, responsibility, concerns and care,
She possesses all the feminine virtues that we gratefully pride,
She is so reliable that you can indubitably anything in her confide!
Then, your joys must multiply on this Daughters' Day,
For, dark miseries recede at the presence of your Gudu-Moon's Ray!
