Bamboo there at Marigit,

when I passed by long ago,

sprouts were just appearing then.

Passing by the other day,

with thorns thickly overgrown,

ready for a house to build!

At the field's edge stands a palm.

Formerly it was still small;

I paid no attention then.

But now that it is full grown,

not the old leaves I will take,

but the young ones! Beautiful

for a basket woven well,

that I will carry along.
