Darling, if you would just say that you love me
Then I would no longer have to ask on a bended knee
For your fair hand, which is fairer than the swan
No longer would I sigh, right from night to dawn.
...

Snow-white clouds decorate the sky
They are fluffy and fleecy, and pleasant to the eye
They are the silver linings on many a gray morn
When you lazily wake up, stifling a yawn.
...

The red eye of the sun took at last look over the earth
For it, could not, its gaze from it, avert
And then, with a final farewell it disappeared
As quickly as the flight of a tiny humming bird
...

Let's all see what the farmer does
When Spring is in its bloom
He ploughs the soil with all his might
And then, for the seed, makes room.
...

On my evening walk
The grass strewn with flowers
My attention does block
Till I look up at our towers
...

Bright came the dawn
Tripping across the lawn
Over the lake and hill
And over the window sill
...

Heavenly bells ring
Birds of paradise sing
Flowers bloom in the spring -
Light breezes which also bring
...

If the world does not seem bright to you
If instead of being an optimist you being one of the pessimists few
If you feel you have struggled in vain
And have not achieved any suitable gain
...

I will first put flowers on the grave of my mother
Who has influenced me, as has no other
Though she is now no more her aura is there
Which keeps sprinkling seeds of her love and care;
...

Use brains to know right from wrong
Use lips to sing a joyous song
Use ears to listen to someone's woes
Use nose to sniff the fragrance of a rose
...

I was feeling very lonely
I was feeling very blue
So I went into the garden
To gaze at the pearly dew.
...

Baring
Carrying
Bearing
Caring
...

Drive away your troubles
As if they were but bubbles
Always be full of cheer
And the wheel of happiness, steer;
...

We always have some fear
Unless our conscience is pure and clear
We always have some fear
Especially when meek as a deer
...

Don't let your fears pull you down
Do let your aspirations push you up
Life is but a merry go round
There may be days when you just frown
...

[For many years it was felt and said]

If we can't eat with forks
And can't cut with knives
...

Do you remember me as much as I do
For my feelings for you are still alive
And I Often break into sobs anew
Whenever I am reminded of you
...

It is a bad sign to add injury to a bruise
Thinking it would we good - you'd have nothing to lose
There are other ways of showing a person you are hurt -
You have no need to be abrupt, if he has been curt.
...

An air of serenity had pervaded the room
There was no sign of either extreme joy or gloom
I was as usual, sailing in the ship of dreams
And could see through it, happiness and love's streams
...

Do not yearn for more
Than what you normally get
Do not stamp the floor
Do not fume and fret
...
