Sati was her name
Woman of the supreme sacrifice
She moved forward among the crowd
walking barefoot on the earth
from which she was born
She made a vow
of following him
and now shes honouring it
even if losing her life
Brave widow
This is the time for untying the hair
Brave widow
This is the time to immolate yourself
Funeral pyre was set on fire
The man whom she gave herself
That cold body laid down on the branches
Was waiting the last embrace
She made a vow
of following him
and now shes honouring it
even if losing her life
Brave widow
This is the time of resisting to fear
Brave widow
This is the time to join him
Woman of the supreme sacrifice
She vanished in the smoke
for reuniting to the earth
from which she was born
Flames are high
Lovers are tight
People are hailing her
While she is taking the path
