In the Mall, his eyes were roving
Amidst the crowd that was incessantly moving
He was searching for an attractive face
To launch his idea in his case.
Ah! There came a singular beauty
There can be none like this entity
He rushed to her and blurted
"You are charming__ I'm elated,
May I please know your good name? "
"Why do you want my name?
I wish not to spell my name
Who are you playing this game? "
" I ‘m in search of my wife, missing,
She is not to be found in the gloaming'
If I engage in a talk to a beauteous lady
She will appear from nowhere instantly! '.
