She will most certainly sing. Her voice will be as clear as the sound of ripples spreading across a calm water surface. And when she sings, the entire world will stay transfixed. Her voice will need no accompaniment; it shall have a life of its own. Words will come alive in her songs and the night shall dance to her tunes. As she sings, you will feel the softness of her voice touch your soul and leave it begging for more. Her songs will be of joy and laughter. There will be no sadness in them for gloom dare not darken the place which resonates with the sound of her voice.
She will have the most wonderful smile. Something that touches the heart and in your darkest hour lifts your spirits and lets them soar. She will have the power to lift you from the darkest depths of despair and fill you with all the happiness in the world with just a little smile. When she will laugh, the sound shall carry to the farthest corners and spread joy to all who hear it. The wind will carry the sound of her laughter far and wide and the trees will sway to its music.
Despair shall fear her for where she decides to step, her light shines the way. She will bring hope and good cheer to all who are fortunate enough to see her. Children will love her for she will be a fairy to them and elders will shower her with all their blessings. Her friends shall envy her for there would be no one like her in the whole wide world and she will be the darling of everyone everywhere.
She will be the queen of all that God created and her reign will be one of gaiety and nobility. She will be just in her disposition and fair to all. She will not fear to reprimand the unjust nor be found wanting in her reward to the true. Her wisdom will be her constant companion and she will be renowned for her constant vigil of truth.
Ok Mr King-of-Wishful-Thinking, now that you have described The Queen of the entire universe herself, do you really think that she would hook up with a hick like you and elevate you to the position of the de facto King of the Universe? She might be able to lift your spirit from the darkest depths of despair and all that but let’s not let our imagination run wild here. You? Really? You sure you’re not drunk? Drugged maybe? Just plain whacky?
Lets then get to the brass tacks. Now that we have made Shakespeare proud of ourselves in the preceding sentences, what would really be my dream woman like?
She would be no Lata Mangeshkar but she would definitely be able to carry off a ghazal perfectly and I would lie in her lap and spend the entire night listening to her voice as she moves effortlessly from Raag malkaus by Parveen Sultana to the latest AR Rahman song sung by Chitra and then sings me a Janis Joplin or Dolores O’ Riordan. She will most definitely laugh heartily and yes that includes my wisecracks too. She will have her share of woes but she will have a spirit that is truly indomitable. She would definitely be my pillar of strength and therefore she would have the strength to bear the worries of not one but at least two people. She might not rule the entire world but her kingdom shall definitely have one faithful subject… me. She will not be the picture of perfection for I shall not want her to be so faultless that I am myself ashamed to confront her. But she will have an unwavering sense of right and wrong and her analysis of the situation shall be objective as it can be and still carry with it the warmth that it needs to give. And while her judgments in all other fields may invite criticism rarely, her culinary prowess will most definitely be beyond comparison. She will create the most sinfully delicious dishes ever and I will happily be the lab-rat for any of her gourmet experiments. Most of all, she would be willing to listen to all that I have to say and I know that can be quite an earful. To be my perfect companion, she would definitely require some pots of patience in her kitty.
Will she then be the most perfect woman in the world? Do I want the best woman in the world to be the one who I finally love? Did I just hear someone say “Dream on buddy!”? Well no she wouldn’t be the grace of Princess Diana, wisdom of Jijabai and courage of Laxmibai all rolled into one but what she would have to be is “just right”. She will not be Juliet for Romeo but Monica for Chandler, not the goddess Aphrodite but the plain Meg Ryan for Tom Hanks in “You’ve got mail / Sleepless in Seattle”. All she needs to be is the perfect foil to my inadequacies (I know that’s asking a lot but then we are imagining here aren’t we?) and I am sure I will still have the ending of a “happily ever after” etched into the story of my life. And what, you ask, shall I sing for my significant other?
(Ahem… cough cough)You fill up my senses, like a night in the forest……….. (this is where she picks up and I lie back to close my eyes and listen to her)
