1. Do not cause a cut in hand or foot,
Nor expose the world to bloodshed.

2. And leave the one who portrayed ghosts as omnipotent-
If he solves them then he is the Lord of eternity and antiquity.

3. And the smallest particle becomes a nation to him,
The sun and moon counted among his servants.

4. I was sorry for the good when I knew of it,
And how I was not sorry for it, that it did not last.

5. And I have no benefit from regrets I become happy with,
When separation throws me into regret.

6. The sorrow of a soul is no easy thing-
Its fate after finding is to non-existence.

7. If the dead doubted being stabbed, it would not feel pain-
So the spear in it is like a bead piercing leather.

8. It is the same whether to dress it in fine wraps
Or toss it into fierce flames.
