We have a lot of fun.

The child from the village says:

My home is in a small village,

With wheat fields all around.

My father works all day long,

Tilling the dusty ground.

But when the fierce sun sets at last,

We sit beneath a tree.

The old men talk, the young men sing,

How happy then are we!
