Oh! I can hear the soothing songs of the cuckoo,
Far from the distant hill, with a shrill voice, she sings
The waves of the blue sea
With the charismatic shaft of unruly sunny days
My soul craves for refreshing holidays
With my agile mind, I bid all goodbye
I pack my bag to join the carnival of my village plays
Also, I rejuvenate my hectic being with the magical treat of sundaes
Sometimes I quench my thirsty soul with blue-green red -black yellow-orange beverages
With my bag packed with summer clothes,
I unravel my quest for the countryside
with thrills of yesteryear
The melody of Summer
