Flash Back _ English - Gangu Teli

 Gangu Teli


Near Ram Babu's chaat shop,

Was Gangu Teli's oil store.

In the Seetaram market,

I felt a kind of magic in it.

On his shop's shelves,

Colorful bottles of oils stood,

From which emanated a mix of scents,

Various types of oils, unfamiliar at the time.

Unfamiliar with the names

Of those colorful oils,

Sesame, peanut,

Castor, flaxseed oil.

Sunflower, jasmine,

Olive, basil, sandalwood oil.

Jasmine, rose,

Almond oil and many more.

Even today, when I use any oil,

I remember

Gangu Teli's shop.
