The writer writes and the poet sings,
The painter paints some beautiful things.
The doctor heals and the lawyer appeals,
The pilot flies planes over the hills.

Teachers teach well, the drivers drive,
The actor makes some characters alive.
The player plays and the dancers dance,
The merchant sells goods with good chance.

All are busy throughout the days,
Or they wander through pleasant ways.
Whatever they do, whatever befall,
The farmer must have fed them all.
