When the kid

Reaches out for his play on the ground,

He is not afraid of playing with the dust.

He plays like a dolphin in the sea,

Running in the concrete dust and mud, beside the highway

With a ragged ball of socks and a homemade coconut bat;

His companions, and pastime endeavors.

Learning the rules of his own game,

He grows with the same today and tomorrow

Unknowingly and boldly on the roadside he plays

Unafraid of the enormous vehicles, shaking the highway

How a grown-up he will step out across the highway in future?

May be he will become a clerk in the bank

Across streets,

Where, the colorful bazaar welcomes him.
