Chapter three — Emilie, Anita And Subhas: life partner and beloved daughter of the Leader Supreme

Emilie: Netaji's life-partner

Emilie,
You were the life-partner
Of Mother India's liberation-dreamer,
Subhas.
You were the illumination-fragrance-bliss
In the heart-depths
Of the Nation's Leader unparalleled.
Netaji's inspiration-freshness-moon you were.
Netaji's oneness-ocean-sorrow you were.
O possessor of lofty glories,
O owner of teeming virtues,
You were Netaji's secret sword
And you were Netaji's blood-tinged banner.
Fully blossomed in Netaji's heart-garden,
You spread all-where his redolence.
