O Dear Rabbit How You Look

(Marathi)
(English)
ससा ससा दिसतो कसा
कापूस पिंजून ठेवलाय जसा
लाल लाल डोळे छान
छोटे शेपूट मोठे कान
चारा खाऊन फुगतो टम्म
चाहूल लागताच पळतो धूम!
O dear rabbit how you look
Like carded* white cotton
Bright red beautiful eyes
Little tail and long ears
You fill your tummy with hay and grass,
Hear any trampling,
And off you go!
Notes
*"Carded cotton is the process of lengthening the fibers and cleaning it of seeds which is then used to spin yarn or thread for weaving or spinning." –Quora
Pronunciation from Google:
Sasā sasā disatō kasā
kāpūsa pin̄jūna ṭhēvalāya jasā
lāla lāla ḍōḷē chāna
chōṭē śēpūṭa mōṭhē kāna
cārā khā'ūna phugatō ṭam'ma
cāhūla lāgatāca paḷatō dhūma!
