Analysis of Oh my Love!
Boria Antik 2002 (india)
My left hand is below her head;
My right hand embraces her.
I knock on her door at morning
While she sleepest fastenly
Flowers and fruits i bring her
Living water and food.
She missed the door
I had errands to do.
She seekest me, searches for me.
Outside the gate she runnest.
The gatekeepers forcefully
Does unclean things to her.
Yet, she seekest me and finds me
In the vineyard we used to play.
The vineyard her father workest for
The one she left, but came back.
I still lovest thou, still make love with thee
This time you canst see me, next time you will.
