Answer: In the above lines, the <u>king</u> is praying to God to bring an end to the <u>ongoing war</u>.

In this poem, the first stanza tells us that the speaker considers himself lucky to own the kingdom of his fathers. We see then that the speaker is a king, and that he is speaking to God. Moreover, the second stanza asks God to have pity on his people, and to heal the wounds they have from the civil war. He also asks Him to stop all the wasted blood (the deaths in battle).
