Four Thunderous Persons
by mazHur

A king commands respect
he can do what he wants;
Who dare question him
when he's addressing someone?
Better save your neck


A whore is a woman
abashed not of men;
Who can dare stop her
screaming at you?
Better leave her alone
and keep your mouth shut.

A beggar is wretch
who's lost his honor;
Who can dare stop him
prattling on his own?
Better throw him a penny
Or just buzz off.

A money lender is a person
to him money is dearest;
Who can dare stop him
from urging his money back?
better for a debtor
not to keep his lips tight.


Four kinds of people are these
hard to stop from talking to you
telling them to hold their tongues
Is asking for a trouble yet new!

Barking dogs seldom bite;
May be wrong may be right.
