1. The eyes and time are devastated
More devastating and grievous than twisted eyes

2. The youth reached old age and thought his time
Was old and blamed the passing of eras

3. How many young women after youth
He saw in their weakness through the eras

4. And I was cast with high ambitions though arduous
The bitterness of events made up for with brevity

5. And solitude in the deserts is a better company
For a man than his family in the settlements

6. And if you become an observer in a home
You befriend the inmates under siege

7. Wisdom is the best supporter you call upon
So stick to it, it will suffice your few resources

8. And man's contemplation makes his setting sun slope
And holds back his recklessness into descent
