Birak
No more rains for now.
Burning country everywhere.
My name is Birak.
Bunuru
Hot sun burning down;
On the rows of white flowers.
Bunuru blooming.
Djeran
All heat fades away.
A sea of ants on the ground;
Dancing in the breeze.
Makuru
Sky bursting with clouds.
The ground is slapped by cold rain.
Welcome, Makuru.
Djilba
Weather a mix of;
Biting rain and burning sun.
The time of Djilba.
Kambarang
Colours exploding.
Flowers are all around us.
Rainbow on the ground.
