O moon,
give me moonlight, basketful or two baskets full,
with seeds of moonlight. From the city to my village, on the sides of the path
I want to sow many, small, small moons of light.
The whole village goes to the city daily to work.
It becomes dark on its way back as my village is quite far.
The route is tough and full of snakes and scorpions.
Neither bus nor cart plies.
When my father returns home I am asleep.
And he goes back early in the morning while I am sleeping
