The song of life
The helmsman, the cultivator of the village
Come everybody come
Go to the quay, go to the field
Time flies.
You have to raise the sail
We have to join helm to the plow
River water is surging
Waves playing in the paddy field.
Flood is in the river today
Harvest Binny rice for the next season
There is no time to sit idle
Get up by fastening the waist.
(Binny is a special type of rice that is used to make
roasted rice in greater Bengal)
