Means’ pleasure

I conceived many a time

But failed to deliver a baby.

It didn’t deny me the pleasure

Of having conceived.

 

I mated with him many a time

But wasn’t impregnated at all.

It didn’t deny me the pleasure

Of having mated.

 

He courted me for a long time

But it didn’t result in mating.

It didn’t deny me the pleasure

Of being courted.

 

I was pursued by many a one

But to no one did I say no.

It didn’t deny me the pleasure

Of being each man’s darling.

 

Ends can’t rob means’s pleasure.
