Lily:

Clusters of crocus

Purple and gold

Blankst of pansies

up from the cold

Lilies and iris

Safe from the chill

Snowdrops so still



Fakir:

Ah

A'o jadu ke mausam

A'o garmiyo ke din

A'o mantra tantra yantra

Us ki bimari hata'o



Children's voices:

Mistress Mary, quite contrary

How does you garden grow?

Not so well, she said, see the lily's dead

Pull it up and out you go



Mistress Mary, quite contrary

How does your garden grow?

Far too hot, she cried, see my rose has died

Dig it up,and out you go



Mistress Mary, quite contrary

How does your garden grow?

Had an early frost, now it's gone, it's lost

Dig it up, your' out, you're up

You're out, you're up

And out you go
