A passerine bird,
One of the smallest of sizes,
With a beak almost minute.
On its beak you can count many;

Snowing in the thicket, snowing in the streets.

His eyes are beckoning.

Maikudiis focused but allied by foes,
N'jobu is Herculean but drifted by falsehood,

A day in the month of May.
A day set aside for the illustrious
men and women of the world.
