Two handfuls of rice.

looking at the rice,
Two sons of a needy mother
Their stomachs will settle,
If you get two handfuls of rice.

One meal of rice a day,
They burn in the oven
They must be in the land of gold,
All losers.

If they get rice in the morning,
Can’t get rice at night
The boys cried
Mother, give me rice.

He saw the tears in his mother’s eyes,
Can’t understand mother’s pain
Those two stupid boys
Mother wipes her eyes with a rag.

Even if you don’t give rice
poor mother
Says with a kiss
I will give you rice, my dear,
In the morning again.
