Come, sweet my lad, come
To our hamlet
Where, in ebb and flow
The river sweeps and rolls,
Come, sweet my lad, come!
In the moonlight
Athwart the floating foam,
With the white sail unfurl'd,
And tuning dulcet notes
Come, sweet my lad, come!
When I scull the boat
With sidelong glances spying
Thou wilt cast thy net
For this silvery fish.
We shall sail on
Athwart the heaving seas,
And merge in the moon
Born of the ocean-wave.
(Translated from his original TELUGU song by the author)
