1. I love my daughter and I wish that
I had buried my daughter in the depths of a grave

2. And I didn't bury her out of ill intent but
Out of fear that she would taste humiliation after me

3. Out of fear that she would fall into the hands of a scoundrel
Who would insult my father and curse my grandfather

4. So I wish that God would make her happy with death
Even though she is the dearest person to me

5. And that her mother would follow
So she can find company with her daughter while I live alone
