1. Oh my eye, be generous with your flowing tears
And cry for the grandest defender against adversaries

2. A branch from a generous people, noble lineage
Raised by them, nothing but the best timber

3. I say, when news of his death reached me
And people whispered in secret

4. Oh brother, whether you bid us farewell
Or distance keeps you from your grave

5. How many kind acts you bestowed
Upon orphans and little ones

6. How much bounty you granted
To captives in chains

7. My family is ransomed for one so wronged
The greatest among them shone between adverts

8. A slain hero of thrusting polished spears
Like lightning flashing through homes

9. Let those who once wept for a master
Now weep for him with burning tears

10. Let the horses weep when their master is lost
In the field of death after stumbling

11. Let every brother in distress weep
When the refuge grows too confining

12. A spring rain for the slain, a shelter for dew
When people fear drought suspending rain

13. He watered a land hosting his grave
With clouds pouring heavy rain

14. My only question, so he might be quenched
By a downpour in the arid desert

15. Say to those who rejoice at his fate
You and death are both destined

16. It eased my sorrow that he who cheered
His death pursues him, never resting

17. Between them just a moment
After one who marched by daylight's end

18. Oh you who struck the knight in battle
With your sword in the land of thorn trees

19. Hurling him into its pits, smooth
As the desert lynx, firm in slaughter

20. You battled champions protecting her
Until they shunned harming homes

21. I swear by the House and its visitors
As they set the smooth stones towards pebbles

22. I will not lament after you are gone
Though the valleys of goodwill mourn you

23. Oh what anguish appeared in my core
Like embers bursting within my heart

24. Those once kin or neighbors now spurn me
Should time finish with you

25. And you become a course for flowing sands
For every living meets decay

26. And every rope must someday unravel
