Life is a game of chess
With intricacy countless
Move the right coin at the right moment
And avoid any future lament
Be a pawn ready to accept risk
Not caring about the incurred crick
Be an elephant, slow and steady
To face any challenge be ready
Be the ideal planner-the horse
Then you will not encounter any sores
Be the quick executer the bishop
And then shun away any mishap
Be the queen so mighty and strong
And evade anything that is wrong
Be the king-the emperor
And make your life free of any terror
Play the chess of life with alertness and passion
Then success will always be there in your station
