Are You always this cheerful?
Smiling and sunshiny?
Mischievous and lively?
Ever forgiving and merciful?
This happy?

This facade of yours is tiring me.

Show me that madness of Narasimh.
That severity and seriousness of Ram.
The cruel smile of Varah.
The seduction of Mohini.
The anger of ParshuRam.

I know you have a thousand masks,
Just like I do.
 A different God for everyone.

Brother of Panchali,
Parth's best friend,
Kunti's nephew,
Dharmaraj's advisor,
Radha's lover,
Bharyas' husband,
Dau's unforgivable sibling,
Duryodhan's messenger,

The dictionary is not enough,
To explain your every facet and role.

And the best part?
You were the best at every role.

Be it friend or foe
Brother or lover
Father or husband.

And maybe that's why, 
I chose you to be my everything.
My mother, father,
Best friend, brother,
Teacher, relatives.
Lover.

Now tell me how can there be,
Anything wrong in my life?

When you are verily my Life?

How you care for me like my mother!
How you tease me: the brother I never had!
How you teach me: Krishnam vande jagadgurum!
How you cover up for me: one best friend!
You give me all I want like my father!
And can there be a better lover than You?

Now tell me how can there be,
Anything wrong in my life?

But sometimes you just have to
Show me those other sides of you.

Anger, madness, cunning,
Seduction, severity, seriousness.

Because every time I think that,
I couldn't love you more,
It so happens, that I fall more,
And more deeply in love with you.
