Read it as an act where 'Love' and 'Arranged' are two characters:
(Narrator):
This is the story of Love and Arranged, who were about to get estranged
This is the story of Love and Arranged, who were about to get estranged
Over a fight between the brothers on who was better than
the other;
Who, of the two, had the greater finesse…to make marriage
a success?
The relationship was about to dent…as began the argument:
Love said: I must be better as to me everyone is so kind…
Arranged mocked: “Ha ha! Idiot that’s because you are
blind!”
Love: Still, I am most important of all!
Arranged: Without me everything will fall
Love: With me comes ease and familiarity
Arranged: I bring newness and novelty
Love: I have tales, stories and history
Arranged: Yawn! Nothing like my mystery!
(Narrator):
…Adding to everyone’s confusion, the debate went on without any conclusion.
…Adding to everyone’s confusion, the debate went on without any conclusion.
Irked by all the noise, an old man then advised: “Separate
the two, throw some challenges;
whoever survives, will be adjudged better”
Days went by…everyone could hear them both cry
Arranged suffered as he had no Love for company,
Love couldn’t do much without Arranged’s philosophy.
The old main then called them both and said
it isn’t a question of who is better
it isn’t a question of who is better
It’s about your principles working together;
a marriage will have a happy end
a marriage will have a happy end
If there’s some arrangement in the story of love,
and love in the whole arrangement!
and love in the whole arrangement!
