Kohinoor...Unlucky Stone

I am black unshaped stone Simple but famous for quality alone When cut to size may assume name of diamond All envy keen interest and passion found Many may inherit fortune with precious stone Prosperity may return and poverty gone It may shadow bad luck and misfortune Life may go astray with rhythm out of tune Such is story of diamond “Kohinoor” in possession Previously found with princely states with obsession Sikhs got it with downfall and recession British too lost empire with no concession Where ever it traveled misfortune followed Uprooting of states and downfall allowed Humiliation and shame had to be swallowed Revenge, hate and reprisal got to be vowed “Kohinoor” came to be known as unlucky treasure Cut into size was mounting pressure British obliged and cut into pieces assured Not to pass to any one promise reassured British too were reduced to small empire Golden days passed with good fame to expire Many attempted it to claim and acquire Legal bindings and claims too required History may not repeat with its curse and fall out Kohinoor may stay in vault and not invite rout World may know nothing what it is all about It is tale of destruction and misfortune spell out Still it adores British crown No significance but only in noun Many countries claim and eyes frown British too unwilling and claimdisown
