So she was given grounds of expectations;
He said, "I will visit there very soon."
She is awaited for him; and she does calculations;
She imagines his presence looking at the moon.
Prince of Elizabeth finally comes after a week.
He brings gifts for Elizabeth and her parents;
He'd bought books for her father, and for mother: sweets.
Elizabeth feels happy, for her gift were silver bangles.
There is another surprise for the lovely girl;
Bernard kneels down and takes out something,
He once takes out a necklace of a beautiful pearl;
And then suddenly takes out an engagement ring.
It's the happiest moment in Elizabeth's entire life,
No sooner does he says, "Will you marry me? I love you."
Elizabeth's eyes are with tears; and she has no strife!
All of sudden starts weeping and says, "Yes, me too."
Now they get engaged; and receive many blessings;
And for her, the unforgettable days finally arrive.
Bernard gives her a pair of golden earrings;
Her parents remember their time as this moment revives.
For over a week Bernard Rik stays with them,
They all make every moment a special one.
Elizabeth stores every moment in heart like a gem;
She feels lucky to have him under the sun.
Now Bernard says, "I have to go for my book launch."
Elizabeth shows wish to go with him to see his success.
He tells that you can't come this time honey-bunch,
Because you have to start preparing for our marriage.
After that he gets ready to leave soon;
And makes her promise that he'll quickly return.
Having heard this Elizabeth is in the state of gloom;
Her parents having seen her, also show concern.
He gets ready and says, "Goodbye! Take care."
Elizabeth is unhappy inside, she is upset after all.
So after some days she thinks it's unfair,
Cause days pass but he does not come at all!
He is now gone and away from the princess;
Now Elizabeth's days are longer and lonely nights,
She is completely surrounded with sadness.
In lonely time, there is something she feels,
And something she writes:
"I believe you'll bring all the happiness
I believe my dreams will come true
We will be happy, healthy and free
I can't wait until the day I will meet you"
