>Through the jongole I am went
>On shooting Tiger I am bent
>Bashtaard Tiger has eaten my wife
>No doubt I will avenge poor darling's life
>Too much quiet, snakes and leeches
>But I not fear these sons of beeches
>Hearing loud noise I am jumping with start
>But noise is coming from damn fool's heart
>Taking care not to be fright
>I am clutching rifle tight with eye to sight
>Should Tiger come I will shoot and fall him down
>Then like hero return to native town
>Then through trees I am espying one cave
>I am telling self - "Bannerjee be brave"
>I am now proceeding with too much care
>From far I smell this Tiger's lair
>My leg shaking, sweat coming, I start pray
>I think I will shoot Tiger some other day
>Turning round I am going to flee
>But Tiger giving bloody roar spotting Bengalee
>He bounding from cave like footballer Pele
>I run shouting "Kali Ma tumi kothay gele"
>Through the jongole I am running
>With Tiger on my tail closer looming
>I am telling that never in life
>I will risk again for my damn wife!!!!
