NCERT Class 3 English Marigold Trains

UNIT VI

Have you travelled on a train? Read and enjoy this poem.

Trains

Over the mountains,

Over the plains,

Over the rivers,

Here come the trains.

                             Carrying passengers,

                             Carrying mail,

                             Bringing their precious loads

                             In without fail.

Thousands of freight cars

All rushing on

Through day and darkness,

Through dusk and dawn.

                             Over the mountains,

                             Over the plains,

                             Over the rivers,

                             Here come the trains.

New words

mountains, passengers, rivers, precious, mail, plains, dusk, dawn 

Reading is fun
