Rain floods river
River joins sea
Rain and river lose own names
Beggar begs and earn
Saving makes him lord
Loses his bad name ‘beggar’
Hunger turns him mad
Poor boy steals bread
Earns a name ‘thief’
My house is a hut
We share in it love
We call it our sweet home
The sun brings dawn
The sun leaves dusk
The gap between the two is day
