Village Song


by Sarojini Naidu


Honey child, honey child whither are you going ?

Would you cast your jewels all to the breezes blowing ?

Would you leave the mother who on golden grain has fed you ?

Would you grieve the lover who is riding forth to wed you ?

Mother mine, to the wild forest I am going,

Where upon the champa boughs the champa buds are blowing;

To the koil-haunted river isles where lotus lilies glisten,

The voices of the fairy folk are calling me:

O listen !

Honey child, honey child, the world is full of pleasure,

Of bridal-songs and cradle-songs and sandal-scented leisure.

Your bridal robes are in the loom, silver and saffron glowing,

Your bridal cakes are on the hearth:

O whither are you going ?

The bridal-songs and cradle-songs have cadences of sorrow,

The laughter of the sun to-day the wind of death to-morrow.

Far sweeter sound the forest-notes where forest-streams are falling;

Oh mother mine, I cannot stay, the fairy folk are calling.
