The ants are very small or tiny,

But they can do superhuman feats.

They can carry a serpent even.

The red ants give a very sharp sting.

They enter the nose of big elephants,

Agitate them and make them run hither and thither.

A small ant enters your ears at night

And teases you to an enormous degree.

A large army of ants attacks you at night

And disturbs your sleep.

Keep any box with sweetmeats anywhere.

They will penetrate and taste them first.

You cannot separate sugar when it is mixed with sand,

But they can separate the sugar very easily.
