EIGHTIETH BIRTHDAY ANNIVERSASRY
Eightieth Anniversary O Maharaja
Prevail Ye above perils near and afar
Dispenses of all Thy wealth and riches
That joy befalls deprived masses.
If Raja followed righteous paths
Clerics high would heed, avarice gashed
Else, refrain from black magic vices
Exorcize from our Capital Golden Site
Siam will pursue Eternal Truth
Stops caressing whites' rumps profuse
Returns to Tai-Laos wisdoms long ensued
Ending conflicts Muslim-Malayus
For blessings to be fulfilled
Upholds Thyself in penitence
Walks the path One Enlightened Guru
Seeks at Thy side those wise and astute
Faithfuls will utter odious to regal ears
Dare flout royal wishes and peers
Only to serve nation's needs genuine
Exhort the Crown in joyful ‘Halleluiahs'!
Those fawning, flattering, fudging,
Surround Thy side with praise conjuration
Dire keepers of royal possessions
Spawning waste to one's revelation
Besides, usurpers of coup d'etat
Distant Thyself ranked militia
Mete out Thy power to the domain
Commencing with the Sovereign
Siam democracy old and ancient
Derived from Sangha's tradition
Dwelling within Tai-life of yore
Lending to life untainted grandeur
Espouses ideal true liberty
Human right, honor, dignity,
Multitude wronged and oppressed
Nation's structures most warped, depressed
If corrected beneath true penchant
Lead to royal propitious exaltation
Removing blemishes of the reign
Into ‘seventh heaven' when life eternal
Scores of illnesses corporal
Less dismal than veiled attendants
With piercing ache to cranium, pummel,
Exact Dharmic verses to right immoral
Religious rituals not cust' sacred
Observes ‘Trisika' venerated
Gladly admit aberrant errs
And truth will abide by Thy seer
At last, nation will Dharma flourish
By One honor-dignity leads
Bestowing happiness to this realm
Accolades not vernacular sham!
PS
Crown Property, chattels of royal Sovereign
Be banished to distance afar
A communal gift of munificence
So imparts opulence to Thy province
May it please Your Majesty
