1. Hunzastan
The Himalayan
Magic Kingdom is all most
tourists know,
In their
search for
sun and snow.
The soul of
Hunza is safely
hid away though,
Behind old
walls within
which centuries
flow.
Musty
facades from
which the
tourists flee,
But ... for a few,
who feel an
urge to pray.
2. Kafiristan
Tiny little girl ...
with blonde hair
with hazelnut eyes
decorated with yellow bow
runs barefoot
through the grove, singing:
Baba! Baba!
I am coming, I am coming
following light steps rhythm.
Tiny little girl ...
felt weariness
and sat down, looking around
over her head and besides
and all over she is seeing
Wild Poisoned Berries:
Baba! Baba!
I will eat them, I will eat them
So big and so sweet-scented.
Tiny little girl
holding the biggest berry
as a shield
saving the childhood
there preserves all in brand outline:
Baba! Baba!
I won't be back, I won't be back
Just pass in review an' pick up
a bit strength for being a grandpa.
