You are an enigmatic island among the fairy lands!
A mystic combine of the ancient and the modern,
A symphony of the past and the present.
An exquisite fabric
woven of the warmth of the sun
And the coolness of the moon,
Your capital Bangkok is a floating city
with all its trees, flowers, cars, and the wares
as if all laden in a ship of embroidered Art.
And your people, like the inspired ‘bearers�
carrying you in a palanquin of flowers
dressed in enchanting colours.
THAI! Dear!
When do you rest, I wonder!
For, you look so breathlessly busy.
yet, so fresh in refreshed morn
as if you have slept in buds and woke in flowers.
You appear to us ‘the poets�
Like a great ‘Poetessâ€�, nay, a priestess Â
leisurely moving towards the Ocean of Wisdom
gathering all the tributaries of Knowledge
We come to pay our ‘Homage� to you
The fountain head of poetry!
‘The spring of Light�! the Engrossing Site!
carrying your smiles as our flowers.
your charms as our dreams.
your ripples as our songs.
your breezes as our bristling thoughts.
ADIEU! CHAO PRAYA! The River of Liberty
ADIEU THAI the land of celestial dignity!
