Than-Bauk Poems

Might
Stand with great might,
for this fight is
to smite our foe.

It's Key
Care not for me
as to see that
it's key not to.




A Than-Bauk, conventionally a witty saying or epigram, is a three line "climbing rhyme" poem of Burmese origin. Each line has four syllables. The rhyme is on the fourth syllable of the first line, the third syllable of the second line, and the second syllable of the third line." Poetrysoup
