The Two Fishes
On the path of a village
A fish was crying loudly;
Behind it another lay
On the land deadly.
Many were crossing them
But nobody heard,
Then its voice
Went to a kind shepherd.
Very politely he asked
And knew the reason .
The reason was nothing
But the cruel season.
The cruel summer season
Had dried the big pond.
In quest of water ,
The two fishes reached the ground.
Not a drop of water was found
Due to lack of rain,
So all their labour
Was in vain.
One of the two fishes
Was breathing the last;
He took the both
And ran very fast.
He put them into a tank
Conserving water for his cattle.
After that the fishes started
To dance and whistle
