Wrapped around the dead body of her father,

The girl was crying, crying, crying, and telling everyone,

All medicines prescribed by the doctor he took,

Mom had asked and fed him too,

Then why did cancer win against us and why did we lose him?

Mommy invested all accumulated capital of the house in his treatment,

I too had ordered medicine after emptying my piggy bank,

Maternal and paternal grandparents all together had prayed to God to cure him,

Then why did cancer win against us and why did we lose him?
