TRANSLATION.

The edge of the sword cuts, and the sword gets the credit; so

the soldier fights, but his officer gets the fame.

“_Junthur Munthur._”—Sanscrit words, literally meaning enchanting by

figures and incantations.

“_Ram Ram Song._”—The appeal of Hindus is invariably to “Ram,” as the

god ready to help in difficulties, and probably an incarnation of

Vishnu.

The Fakir’s song would likely be:

Ram jerôka bait-kur

Sabka mujra lay

Jaisa jiski chakri

Taiko Thysa dhay.
