This is a magic fruit,

more lustrous than rubies,

so when you split it open, be prepared
so when you split it open, be prepared
for the jewels of the world to tumble out,
for the jewels of the world to tumble out,
more precious than garnets,
more precious than garnets,
more lustrous than rubies,
more lustrous than rubies,
lit as if from inside. —Imtiaz Dharker
