Down has come the spring my pals! <br />Let’s commence our joyful dance <br />All in unison sweet you sing <br />Pure lush green in every thing <br /> <br />Full of blooms the basements are <br />Yellow red violet the roses are <br />How wonderful looks this garden <br />Set by the gorgeous spring maiden! <br /> <br />Has set in the season fruit bearing <br />Big black beetles drunken singing <br />Butterflies they heartily invite, <br />There is elixir for all to share <br /> <br />Let us celebrate sing and dance <br />The spring is on from all four flanks! <br /> <br />PS: <br />This poem is an exact translation of the Hindi poem ‘Aya Basant’ by Deepti Agarwal, posted on her page on 10th April 2008.
