THE SONG OF “RANJI”
From a throne to the simple sward,
Sudden to pass!
From the aching Asian plains
To the English grass!
Sudden to pass!
From the aching Asian plains
To the English grass!
From the glitter fierce to the cool,
Over the billow;
From a crown to a cap pale-blue,
From cedar to willow!
Over the billow;
From a crown to a cap pale-blue,
From cedar to willow!
From the stillness deep to the roar,
To the green from the waste,
From the howdah to hooting car,
From the hush to the haste!
To the green from the waste,
From the howdah to hooting car,
From the hush to the haste!
From salaam to the friendly cheer,
From the prince to the guest.
From the shadowless to the shade,
From the East to the West!
From the prince to the guest.
From the shadowless to the shade,
From the East to the West!
