Summary
झाड ध्यानस्थ ऋषीसारखे बसते - मौन धरून तपश्चर्या करते.
The tree stands silent like a meditating sage. Silence is often useful.
झाड पक्ष्यांना आसरा देते, पण अपेक्षा ठेवत नाही - विना अपेक्षेने दातृत्व.
The tree gives shade to birds but expects nothing. Humans too should help without expectation.
कितीही वादळे आली तरी झाड घट्ट पाय रोवून उभे राहते.
The tree stands firm in storms. Humans should show patience in hard times.
सर्व दुःखे बाजूला ठेवून पानांच्या सळसळीसारखे हसावे - उत्साही जीवन.
Leaves rustle with joy in the wind. Likewise live with enthusiasm and smile.
हिरवेगारपणा, ताजेपणा, नवीन वेष - झाडापासून आनंदी जगणे शिकावे.
The tree bathes in rain and wears new leaves after shedding. Live fresh and joyful like it.
