Subah subah Ye suraj din se kya kehta hoga?
Aaj kya tohfa laye ho mere liye? Din ka jawab - main Khud jo hun tumhare liye,
par tum har sham ko mera saath kyun chhod dete ho?
Suraj kehta - main jo tumhara saath na chhodun,
To tum raat ka aanchal na odh sakogi aur na hi chand tumhari maang tika ban payega!!
Main tanhai ke saath apni ladai haar gaya, bilkul tanha jo tha; Aur dekha to wo bhi haari hui thi,naadan mere saath jo thi.
O invisible weaver, where are you?
I can see the bright blue roof of your hut,
One big red wheel in the east, Another small silver coloured in the west,
Both move round and round without stop.
Huge heaps of cotton - white and black and grey,
Why scattered all around your hut say?
Won't the birds sit on them and spoil them all?
So large is your house and you have no windows, no doors, weaver sir, won't the thieves steal all the cotton?
So much cotton and no workmen to help you lord? You must be working all night and all day.
Pray, whom for do you make clothes master, What do they pay ?
Are they good to you - your buyers? Are they kind or do they cheat? Master, I am a little boy and I know less,
But I will learn fast: keep me as your workman and bless !!
