Panna Dai, the loyal nurse,
In Rajputana's history, a verse.
With courage and love in her heart,
She played an essential role from the start.

In the palace of Mewar's king,
A new prince was born, a precious thing.
To ensure his safety and well-being,
Panna Dai was entrusted with overseeing.

In the dark of night, a switch she made,
To swap the prince with her son, she forbade.
As the enemy's sword pierced her son's chest,
She remained calm and did her best.

She carried the prince to a safe place,
Without a moment of hesitation or disgrace.
She raised him like her own child,
And kept him protected from danger wild.

Her loyalty and devotion to the prince,
Were unwavering, without a wince.
She sacrificed her life for his sake,
Her legacy in history, she did make.

Panna Dai, a symbol of bravery and love,
Her story will live on and inspire many above.
Her selfless act will never fade,
A true heroine, in every sense, she portrayed.
