Haste makes waste, it's certain
and never fight to lose, to be beaten
better wait and thoroughly plan and prepare
and know the enemy's power first and yours compare
check your emotions, always maintain utter caution
control your anger, too though it might bear enough reason
never show up your strategy, better keep mum
and calculate all in mind until the final moments come
choose a time which the enemy least expects
and strike him hard with colossal effects
and fight till finish and win the battle
and taste peace afterward with the title.
