1. O my companion and helper
Whenever I attempt to get up

2. Heal my illness, O David
Or make me one of the healed

3. It is ugly of you to neglect
One who is not neglectful

4. The day has come when he lived
Seeing what was hateful

5. Let my wailing in it rise
And my tears overflow

6. My tusks have been dyed with the
Blood of my worn out teeth

7. And be the supporter in the
War whenever you were a supporter

8. And make room for the tears
From your painful tragedies

9. It is a day we were given
A bitter drink from its misfortunes

10. Religion has become shaky and whoever
Was in it has become frail

11. And the miscarried one has been thrown
Who was a fetus in the womb

12. Leave your troubles and listen
To its heartfelt elegies

13. Do not refuse, as we have worn
A tattered garment

14. Tell a people who have always been
Deeply rooted in ignorance

15. It deluded them that they
Built while they built nothing

16. Tomorrow, in spite of you
You will repay the debts

17. You will find a building
For you, very contrary

18. And what is pleasant to your
Mouths today is menses

19. While you are domes in it
And a court and yard

20. And I soon see them
As insects, black and white

21. And you see the white and the
White over them flickering

22. And on their shoulders every
Young man wrapped in bandages

23. With them a glance hopes
Which yesterday was frowning

24. With them one who was sick is cured
Who was not obscure gloominess

25. With them a glance rests
Who was not obscure gloominess

26. For the stubbornness of their blood
Poured on the ground boiling

27. The head was raised to the
Long spear narrating the flickering

28. And the body bowed to the bare
Horses galloping furiously

29. Far be it from me to
Abandon them or seek a substitute

30. So may God water graves
For them with the sweet bitter

31. But they refused except the land of the green
And the small garden plot

32. And to them those spirits
Make those cherished visits

33. Not because of elegy for them
Rather, they fulfilled their duties

34. And loved them as a receipt
That leaves the mouths in chaos
