Harvesting The Crop, The Chaste Verdict Of Negligence
The story of kings' and their kingdoms', is herewith about to be told;
Of strife and political govern, and the anguish to be overthrown
One kingdom was gleaming and golden, its castle was built out of strain;
It was ruled by a merciful monarch, who's justice was widely acclaimed
Elected to power by voting, by his fellowmen that he had been;
A prospering nation of justice, where each owned as much as their kin
The other domain was of silver, its regent was righteous and grand;
He governed his kingdom by justice; and rendered his ruling by hand
The monarch had come into power; by seizing his govern by force;
He considered himself to be able, and by cunning he managed his course
Each kingdom prevailed independent, their riches continued to grow;
But then came a sudden disaster, of drought that obstructed the growth
Starvation was sudden and heartless, for the king in the golden domain;
He had labored his folk for the kingdom, convoking their goods and their grains
But the people he reigned were neglected, and the virtue of personal gain;
And soon he was stranded with nothing, but the cast of a social charade
The kingdom of silver and marble, was likewise affected by drought;
But merely in petty proportions, as govern was slightly unlike.
The people had land that they planted, to nourish themselves and their king;
Profusion was not for the kingdom, but earnings for personal strain
The people of silver had plenty, preserved since the time of excess;
Diverse to the folk who had nothing, who's earnings had mothered distress
He pleaded, he begged and he bellowed; that his neighbors should part with their gain;
And contribute avail for his people, the king of the golden domain
The people considered his motives, but seemly rejected his plea;
They replied that the rate of survival, was an issue for nature to deem
The king was provoked by this answer, and shortly resolved to wage war;
In attempt to ensure his persistence, and the life of his people of course
But the force he unearthed was brutal, and too meager he was his cause;
Let nature decide who is able, or be reckoned for judgement by force
Cosechando La Cosecha, El Casto Veredicto De La Negligencia
La historia de reyes y sus reinos, se va a relatar aquí;
De luchas y gobierno político, y la angustia por ser derrocado
Un reino brillaba y era dorado, su castillo construido con esfuerzo;
Era gobernado por un monarca compasivo, cuya justicia era ampliamente aclamada
Elegido al poder por votación, por sus semejantes que lo habían puesto;
Una nación próspera de justicia, donde cada uno poseía tanto como su pariente
El otro dominio era de plata, su regente era recto y grandioso;
Gobernaba su reino con justicia; y dictaba sus fallos con mano firme
El monarca había llegado al poder; tomando su gobierno por la fuerza;
Se consideraba capaz, y con astucia manejaba su rumbo
Cada reino prevalecía independiente, sus riquezas seguían creciendo;
Pero entonces llegó un desastre repentino, una sequía que obstaculizó el crecimiento
El hambre fue repentina y despiadada, para el rey en el reino dorado;
Había trabajado a su gente por el reino, convocando sus bienes y sus granos
Pero las personas que gobernaba fueron descuidadas, y la virtud del beneficio personal;
Y pronto se encontró sin nada, solo con el disfraz de una farsa social
El reino de plata y mármol, también fue afectado por la sequía;
Pero solo en pequeñas proporciones, ya que el gobierno era ligeramente diferente
La gente tenía tierras que cultivaban, para alimentarse a sí mismos y a su rey;
La abundancia no era para el reino, sino ganancias para el esfuerzo personal
La gente de plata tenía mucho, conservado desde tiempos de exceso;
Diferente a la gente que no tenía nada, cuyas ganancias habían generado angustia
Él suplicaba, rogaba y gritaba; que sus vecinos compartieran sus ganancias;
Y contribuyeran para ayudar a su gente, el rey del reino dorado
La gente consideró sus motivos, pero rechazaron su petición;
Respondieron que la tasa de supervivencia, era un asunto para que la naturaleza decidiera
El rey se sintió provocado por esta respuesta, y pronto decidió librar una guerra;
En un intento por asegurar su persistencia, y la vida de su gente por supuesto
Pero la fuerza que desató fue brutal, y demasiado débil era su causa;
Deje que la naturaleza decida quién es capaz, o ser juzgado por la fuerza
