Adding multiple text overlay on shapes in SwiftUI

Question

I am working on a project where I use different shapes in SwiftUI, for example, this RoundedRectangle. I want to add text on it through overlay but it doesn't let me add more than one line . I tried to search for some tutorials for overlay but always found ones showing just -one life of text - example.

So I was wondering if there's a way to add multiple lines of text overlay on shapes like that or if there is some better way to approach it.

Thank you for your feedback.

Here's the current code:

import SwiftUI


struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        
        HStack {
        RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20)
            .frame(width: 320, height: 200)
            .foregroundColor(Color.blue)
            .overlay(
                Text("Hello there")
           )
            
      }
    }
}

struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
    }
}

And here's what I would ideally like, but this way it doesn't work this way:

import SwiftUI


struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
        
        HStack {
        RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20)
            .frame(width: 320, height: 200)
            .foregroundColor(Color.blue)
            .overlay(
                Text("Hello there")
                Text("Hello there")
                Text("Hello there")
                Text("Hello there")
                Text("Hello there")
                Text("Hello there")
                
           )
            
      }
    }
}

struct ContentView_Previews: PreviewProvider {
    static var previews: some View {
        ContentView()
    }
}

Wrapped your text with anyone of them Group , VStack , HStack , etc. in one container.

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
           HStack {
           RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20)
               .frame(width: 320, height: 200)
               .foregroundColor(Color.blue)
               .overlay(
                Group{ //<-- Here
                   Text("Hello there")
                   Text("Hello there")
                   Text("Hello there")
                   Text("Hello there")
                   Text("Hello there")
                   Text("Hello there")
                }
              )
         }
       }
}

Or you can use @ViewBuilder

struct ContentView: View {
    var body: some View {
           HStack {
           RoundedRectangle(cornerRadius: 20)
               .frame(width: 320, height: 200)
               .foregroundColor(Color.blue)
               .overlay(
                overlayView
              )
         }
       }
    
    // Make your view here
    @ViewBuilder
    private var overlayView: some View {
        Text("Hello there")
        Text("Hello there")
        Text("Hello there")
        Text("Hello there")
        Text("Hello there")
        Text("Hello there")
    }
}
