The Train Come on children, let’s play a game

Climb aboard the chugging train!

 Blow your whistles and take your seats

Onto shoulders, if you please!

Forward, backward, backward forward,

But in a line, don’t run outward!

Stay in line, and shut your eyes

With open eyes, you’ll nothing spy.

On roads of iron, we move to and fro,

Here come the lights, and there they go.

Across the meadows, over the hills,

Past aging farmers, temples, mills.

Past village wells and a lush green field

With broken walls, and a potato field

Smoky clouds,Fairs and crowds.

Village fairs,Riders on mares.

Flocks of birds,

Clustered huts.

Bridges and paths,

Dhobi ghats.

Small tea-shops,

Puddles and flocks

Come, let's meet some children and find out how they spent
