landsbyggsbarnen
dyker in in tjärnen
stadspojken använder hinken

gaanv ke bachche

taalaab mein gohta marein; 

shehari lardke ki dubake baalti

Outstanding Nanda ~ This is a beautiful senryu ~

But it is very sad too to realize how unskilled we civilized ones have become!

You know, we see this at the ponds in our anecstral houses in kerala, Narayanan.

I really do appreciate your translations, Rebba. Thank You!
