These weary bodies and souls
Discover the lonely world Where the yellow dwarf star drops down when the blue blanket turns dark And the bright stars twinkle here and there! Collecting the reaped paddy throughout, The peasants dance in the muddy field The tidal music from the brook soothes the minds that long for peace, And brings solace to the gentle hearts! The palms all around the fertile lands Swing their heads and spread an aura The gentle breeze kisses the flowery path Where petals welcome and pollens scent, And the vast ground designed with roses! The painted sky splashes the colours The brownish land celebrates the feast Harvested crop fillled the containers Houses are adorned with greenery Success lies in the smiles of folks!
