1. Wallowing in decadent darkness, without care
For which path he takes in life's tangled snare,

2. Shame enough your reason weeps constantly
While your face laughs on in mockery,

3. Do not destroy yourself with cups of wine
For they in turn will come to destroy you in time,

4. How often you take them as boon companions all night
While they slowly take from you more than you can fight,

5. I withhold from you for your crimes are so immense,
And so too when judges are mentioned, withhold and be silent.
