A child of light
I was a poor, hardworking shepherd boy, Everyday I carried milk for a rich man, On an unfamiliar hot summer's day, I quenched my thirst from the pond, Which was beside a banyan tree on the road, I rested for a while in the shade of a tree, Very soon, I fell into a deep slumber, Suddenly ,I was startled by the new scene, A bright lady of celestial beauty, She carried a child of light in her arms, And she greeted me with a lovely smile, She requested me some milk for her baby, I joyfully gave her some milk for her child, Smile spread over the face of the holy baby.
