Translation
Bala tentera kita ini amat bersukacita dan sentiasa menaruh kasih setia kepada kita. Sejak dahulu lagi mereka memelihara sikap tunduk hormat terhadap kita. Mereka tidak terjerumus dalam sebarang ketagihan atau keburukan. Pada zaman lampau, keberanian dan keperkasaan mereka telah pun disaksikan di hadapan mata.
