Poems of maharaja Ranjit Singh
Answers
Justice, military strength, pomp and pageantry
Empirical designs encroaching on fragile treaties
Glory, humility, defeat
Betrayal wrenched out of the depths of kinship
Blood sacrifice sufficient to smother the will to live
Many lives
Many brilliant, radiant, devoted wives, and many spirited children
*
With one eye you can fill a court with diplomacy
You can demand order
You can keep in kingly comfort a peer and entourage,
How best not to distract them from the task at hand
To have their many needs and wants fulfilled promptly
Never ration the desire to negotiate!
*
With one eye you can guarantee peace
Entrench justice, defend the weak
Muster history
Design and master weaponry
Entice artifacts that will survive you
Monitor the movements and accomplishments of troops
Deliberate with generals
Execute strategy, reward loyalty
And, with one eye, take full responsibility
For the safety of the realm
The security of faith
The survival of a nation
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
