Where can I find that place?
Oh! Let me go there
Far from the blowing horns
And chimneys vomiting streams of smokes
Away from the forenoon smoky sun
And the nights that never worn out for long
Oh! Someone take me away
From the barren land with chopped trunks
I can’t pretend to be blind any more
Where rain is an inexorable illusion
Still thirsty throats seek salvation
Oh! Let me go there
Away from mud cracks of paddy fields
Away from the grown poisoned leaves
Off the foamy river banks
Away from dusty smoky air
Oh! Where can I find that place?
Where birds welcome morning sun rays
The green canopy gives me shade
Where I don’t have to buy water
No boundaries for me to wander
Where I can breath deep inside
And I ought to live my life
