1. O flower of misfortune and misery
O rose of sorrows and worries

2. Death breathes upon you
And your melodies are poisoned

3. Snakes slither around you
Fangs bared for delight

4. Life is but a drawing and you are a worm
O, the joy of worms in decay

5. The day rusts because of it
We think our night is mindless

6. The night from its impact is blind
So how can it be cleared or chant?

7. Hope does not thrive where you grow
The soul from your evil is barren

8. You leave behind only bareness
As if foes met at the spear

9. If you break in a heart
The most steadfast one

10. As if taking revenge on days
While they do not last

11. You kindle inside ribs a fire
Fed by soul and body

12. Oh misery for love, how you reap
From the paradise of beauty this hell

13. Oh misery for people, do they sing
With hate when vile is praised?

14. In hate there is nothing of meaning
And its discourse is not grave
