Read Time:26 Second
Like a firm tree you stood
Deeply rooted in your artworks
With large branches you shaded many
And bore bounteous fruits to feed us with
In the land of poetry, numerous are your heirs
Your words are as good as fresh air
And satisfying to the soul when we inhale
For that, your name shall forever be told in our tales
Maya, you live on
