GIRLS OF VILLAGE
On Shami
tree
Growing in
vicinity of village
Swing on
swing
Sing songs
On ‘Sawani
Teej’
Girls of
village.
They have
totally forgotten
For a short
while
Making cow
dung cakes
Sweeping
house
Coating
earthen stove
Making ‘Roti’
And milking
cow
Girls of
village.
With their
friends
Totally
absorbed
Discuss
Dance and
hop
Return from
fair
Relish
Jalebis
Girls of village.
In their
eyes
Have
blossomed
Vibgyor
bloom
Flashing
lightning
Down pouring
clouds
In their
heart
Sways
Zeal of
happiness
Girls of
village
Live their
own self
Many a
times.
Original poem in Rajasthani : Shyam Maharshi ji
