A little India
You're an adult now and a child no more
A fact that your mother and I can't ignore
So soon we'll send a letter back home
To a man who will tame and make you a wife of his own
Anything you wanted we gave it to you
You've had a good upbringing don't dispute what is true
Our traditions they say that a parent decides
What is best for their girl and who makes her their bride
Who will love you when you get old
Who will love you when you get old
You've just left school and full of ideas
Bringing confirmation to our darkest fears
How could we have a daughter with a mind of her own
When all women should be a man's possession at home
Who will love you when you get old
Who will love you when you get old
