Water festival, oh water festival
In Thailand, a joyous ritual
A celebration of the New Year
With water, laughter, and cheer
In April, when the sun is bright
The streets come alive, a dazzling sight
With people dancing, splashing, and singing
And water guns, a constant ringing
From buckets, hoses, and balloons
Water flows like a joyful monsoon
A symbol of purification and renewal
A cleansing of the old, a fresh start, a revival
In temples, blessings are sought
As monks chant and blessings are brought
To honor the Buddha and ancestors past
And to offer gratitude, love that lasts
But mostly, it's a time for fun
To forget the troubles, and just run
To laugh, dance, and play with friends
And celebrate life, until it ends
So come, let's join the revelry
And embrace the water festival, so free
Let's soak our souls in joy and love
And offer blessings, to the gods above.
