When you look at it, it was a lush green tree,
now a tall tree fallen flat on the ground.
When you look at it, it was a lush green tree,
now a tall tree fallen flat on the ground.
Even if gathered, can it serve as firewood?
Oh, my wise dear,
if put into the fire, will even charcoal remain?

Look at that shapely, beautiful body,
adorned with a bindi and flowers!
Once stretched out flat on the funeral pyre,
is it worth even a single penny?
Look at that young bull strutting around,
so well-built and strong!
Look at that young bull strutting around,
so well-built and strong!
Once stooped and bent with age,
will this body ever dance around like this?

and sealed them away safely.
He bundled up his gold and riches,
and sealed them away safely.
Trusting last year's rains,
he sowed his seeds in hope.
He altered the ledger books again and again,
and wrote down his false accounts.
He altered the ledger books again and again,
and wrote down his false accounts.
But the account written by God did not change,
and down he fell dead!

Oh, my wise dear,
if put into the fire, will even charcoal remain?
Before the harvest is even over,
should one sow seeds again?
Oh Lord, in your creation,
why is there such a rush?
Even after giving birth to ten children,
is she eight months pregnant again?
Even after giving birth to ten children,
is she eight months pregnant again?
For this poor, wretched woman,
must she always wear the guise of pregnancy?
