Rain & Padauk

Padauk and Rain
Once the rain fall
Returning new year call
During one month in a year
During one day in that month
Padauk blooms out in the forest


Rain and Padauk
This is New Year
Go and look at
Lo and behold
When Padauk’s show gold
The date has told – ~ Unknown
During one month in a year
During one day in that month
Padauk blooms out in the forest
No one can describe all the wonder
Of the Royal Flower
Padauk ~ by U Kyaw (1853-1878) (an accomplished poet during KoneBaung Dynasty under King MinDon)
Fragrant and fresh
Are the whole branches
Brimming with new life
Brilliant are the leaves
All golden lights
Pleasant are the forest
At Thingyan’s festival time ~ by Princess Hlaing Hteik Khaung Tin (1833-1875)
Accomplished poetess Princess Hlaing Hteik Khaung Tin was married to Prince KaNaung (younger brother of King MinDon)
