Matrimony

By Dulpatram-Kavi, Translated from Guzarati by G. B. Reddy

By NANALAL DULPATRAM-KAVI, M.A.1

Matrimony is a vow to blossom our life,
Is a sure step on our way to the place of eternal bliss,
An imperative course to all mortal beings.
To marry is to step into divinity.2

Translated from GUJARATI by

G. BIJOY REDDY.

1.This and the next poem are from his famous play, lndukumar.
