may the path ahead be pleasant for you, o traveller

may the path ahead be pleasant for you,
o traveller
go and bless the shadows of the trees
that saved you from the heat
and also bless those bamboo groves
which saved  you from the storms
but then remember,
once in a while
those small pools of water on the roadside
in which you cooled your heels
washed the dust off,
 so that it feels
cool, clean and calm
go away traveller, go away
your memory is like a cool balm
