A Temple Beside The Pond

A temple beside the pond,
Surrounded with asoka trees;
And trees loaded with flowers,
Receiving cold cool breeze.

Coming across the acres of farmers land
From grove of mango trees,

To this holy peaceful place from home,
A narrow spiral way leads.

The pond itself adorned with lotuses,
Many water plants and weeds.
Halt for thirsty castles and tired villagers,
Pleasure of fishing and diving exceeds;

Fragrances of flowers and fireflies at night
Stand the place in good stead.
