They flit about , the green-beaks ,
With their variegated wings .
To be rejoiced in are these princes !
May they receive the blessing of Heaven !
They flit about , the green-beaks ,
With their glancing necks .
To be rejoiced in are these princes !
They are screens to all the States .
These screens , these buttresses ,—
All the chiefs will take them as a pattern .
Are they not self-restrained ? Are they not careful ?
Will they not receive much happiness ?
How long is that cup of rhinoceros ' horn !
Good are the spirits in it and soft .
While it passes round , they show no pride ;
All blessing must come to seek them .
