INVINCIBLE
Human life ancient victorious,
Sagacious, legacy tumultuous,
Encountered countless dangers,
Survival stories, link
strangers, (1)
Crossed turbulent sea river
fit,
Crossed mountain cliffs defeat,
Dense forest desert glacier
feat,
Human life stories books greet,
(2)
An admirer of childhood
addicts,
Humans endeavor bold predict,
Parental property, my firm
land,
Haired farmer landless demand,
(3)
Half the produced he share
year,
Rest is mine paddy costs I
bear,
Loving person and four children,
His wife lives with a son,
grandchildren, (4)
Thatched cottage mud house nit
Polished cow dung colored
right,
Adjacent to my land at the
border,
Backyard his garden bit wider,
(5)
The lands belong to me, given,
The sight fruit garden lit
driven,
Everything he produces potato,
Onion, leaf for curry or
tomato, (6)
Jack fruit mango cocoanut
fence,
Behind a garden delightful, I
sense,
Hard work, age seventy,
healthy,
Neither saw a doctor nor
wealthy, (7)
Scarcely faced sickness
medicine,
Seven decades, his life fit,
serene,
Three O' clocks in winter
freezing,
Cold paralyzes the spine, his
working, (viii)
Pedals wooden slab lifting
water,
From nearby pond to field
harder,
Once, I visited early morning
frost,
His effort presence lonely a
ghost, (9)
No benefit or monetary gain in
his life,
Under the sun, plowing, less
strife,
The whole day, from four O
clock like,
Cultivation for a generation it
strike, (10)
Strike to my heart where am I
live,
Qualified highest degree sick
thrive,
List of medicines diagnosis
warn,
Regulation diet restfulness
scan. (11)
In the evening, he takes a
bath, meal fried rice,
Visit the temple to chant a
practice,
Sleeps after dinner at eight
instant,
A bed with cocoanut rope
reliant, (12)
Perfect his sleep, gets up in
time,
Following his children learn
fine,
Happiness and peace warmth lit,
Simplicity, serenity, divinity,
visit, (13)
On the ground, taking food,
rice, spices,
Onion chilly garlic potato
relishes,
Heath is their wealth, happy
work,
Invincible call him uncle my
remark, (14)
Life passes cannot match
discipline,
The objective of his life feeds
me to define,
Decided to hand over the land
mine,
He served fewer questions a
lifetime. (15)
