The Cow - a Second Mother

As a life-giver to mankind,		
Very special status it enjoys.	
     

Best known as a holy creature on earth.		
Answers man’s thirst and hunger,		
Beast-of-burden besides.					


As a measure of wealth, it serves.
From us, it expects nothing in return.
Thus, a great respect it deserves.
Life’s purpose, from it we discern.


Gives milk and manure;	
A friend to every farmer;	
Man’s second mother.
