1. I ask for nothing from you but loyalty
To your previous promise of withdrawal

2. After possessing the head of the elephant
I reside in its long trunk

3. And after you regain and overlook me
My stance therefrom survives

4. You seek nothing but sustenance
To kill the hunger of all people

5. And if my neighbor possessed, I protected
Her fence and dignity I upheld

6. And I, for my sister the Eastern
More right than any Western hand
