On 12 August 1956, I wrote a poem entitled "To my own darling sister"
Version 2 was delivered at her Bhog (funeral) in Delhi on 16 April 2023
Manju loved music, so we recite this in Qawwali metre:
Oh Manju, our very dear
Oh Manju, our very dear
We are all gathered here
We are all gathered here
To remember and treasure
To remember and treasure
How you loved us without measure
How you loved us without measure
Now be calm in the sky
Now be calm in the sky
And receive our flying kisses
And receive our flying kisses
Way up high
Way up high
