The Poet and the laborer


I would give pleasantness to heart

And food for thought

You’d turn land fertile and raise cattle and crops

And nourish the folks

I teach universal brotherhood

As a herald and an awakener

You serve mankind entire

Through producing food

I am a man of compassion, You are a worker hard

I am a letter , you are a bar of gold

Ours is kinship everlasting

Between a poet and a cultivator.

( Translated from vyjayanti of Sudhansu)
