The    glances we exchanged without a word
Sympathetic humour , sometimes hate
The understanding heart , the  mind  unblurred

The hidden world  which lovers  make and share
To be one whole unhinderd by   grim fate
The    glances are exchanged without a word

We sense a meaning, sense if others care
Feel the lost love and the husband late
The understanding heart , the  words unheard

Who can we trust to  view our feelings rare?
Who will open doors,  unbarr the gate
After   glances  flash and red eyes glare?

Did you ever marry, did you swear?
In sickness and in health   how did your mate?
His understanding heart   is  hidden  where?

Read between the lines and then translate
The culture and  its meanings delegate
The    glances we exchange  beyond all words
The understanding heart , affections shared
