The poem begins with the professor’s question: “Remember me?” Then he himself gives the identity that he is Professor Sheth. It is clear from his speech that he is talking to one of his past students whom he taught geography. He goes on to tell his student that he is now retired but his health is still good at this age. He also mentions that his wife is no more.
By God’s grace, all my children
Are well settled in life.
One is Sales Manager,
One is Bank Manager,
Both have cars.
The professor is thankful to God that all his children are well-established in their life. One of his sons is a Bank Manager, and another one is a Sales Manager. Both his sons own cars.
Other also doing well, though not so well.
Every family must have black sheep.
He now talks about his third son who is not doing so well as the other two. He regards him as the ‘black sheep’ of the family. “Black sheep” here means that the son is probably immoral, unprofessional and somewhat reckless. Even then, the professor protects his son by saying that every family generally has such a member.
Sarala and Tarala are married,
Their husbands are very nice boys.
Now it is his daughters’ turn. Professor Sheth says that his two daughters Sarala and Tarala are married to good husbands. They are ‘very nice boys’ according to him.
You won’t believe but I have eleven grandchildren.
How many issues you have? Three?
That is good. These are days of family planning.
I am not against. We have to change with times.
