Withering Flower

On the very eaves

Of our large thatch those,

Oh, my mother ! my Towa flower

Faded away under the overnight cast.

Don’t cry, my darling,

Mourn not over it,

The mortal world of ours

The rule it says as like this.

The buds may grow

And lead them to bloom

The blooming flowers, my darling,

Fade under the wind and sun;

They wither away to nothing,

And is called the natural end.

Towa Baha: - A type of flower with multiple petals white in colour. it is of pure serene beauty embracing the serenity of the possessor.
