1. The leader of heedlessness is hope
And desire is the leader of slipups

2. Ignorance killed its people
And every reasonable one survived

3. So make use of the time of peace
And resume your work

4. O you who built with shortcomings
And gray hair has crept up on you

5. Gray hair informed about you
That your end is near

6. Why then stand still
In the yard of incapacity and laziness

7. You are in an abode, that once inhabited
The dweller leaves

8. An abode that ceaselessly torments
And distresses the dweller

9. So prepare for a journey
No camel undertakes

10. A journey that has always been
Throughout time, abhorred to start
