INDIAN SPORTING SONGS. 335 



' Chandkee's ' bheer was then well-known, 



And * Gojee's ' rumnah high, 

 At ' Baila ' where the pan is grown 



Big boars were wont to lie. 



IV. 

 There's ' Nagri,' too, of well-known fame, 



With * Jamnee ' to its right, 

 And ' Khoppa,' too, has earned a name 



For boars that run and fight ! 

 And oft o'er * Karlee's ' stony hill 



We've laid into a hog, 

 At * Waree,' too, we've had a kill, 



And soused into its bog ! 



V. 

 And in ' Mahadoola's ' corries deep 



We've roused our stubborn foe, 

 Though now to * Ghirur's ' hill so steep 



We can no longer go. 

 And ' Ghonee,' too, has shown us sport 



With panther as with boar ; 

 Near Khootki's sindbund thick we've fought, 



And stained our spears with gore. 



VI. 

 Then of those days we'll often think, 



And run our runs once more ; 

 To old companions let us drink, 



And toast the mighty boar !
