Tree 13 - Signorina Casuarina

O Charming Casuarina! You are like a ballerina, Singing with the raindrops, Swaying with the waves, Swinging with the Aves! Silhouetting against the amber blue sky, Standing tall, dignified and high, Smiling at the raging sea water Sensitive to the singing birds Signorina Casuarina! At dawn, with the rising morning sun I have watched you innumerable times, Sitting on a wooden stem of tree, You look like an angel with fluttering wings With a glow of mystical aura around you! At dusk, when I sit on the beach Watching the orange ball of the sun Dipping and disappearing into the sea, You look like a mysterious veiled lady, Awaiting your love, a sailor, perhaps, far away! I cannot forget the amazing sight Of several birds sitting together on your branches, As if to attend a joyful conference, Chirpily speaking and cooing with excitement, Merrily singing a shrill symphony! O Charming Casuarina! You are like a ballerina, Singing with the raindrops, Swaying with the waves, Swinging with the Aves!
