1. The days have paralyzed my right hand,
For we have judged and dragged in the judgments.

2. We have blocked the way of dignity among people,
And we have controlled annulment and obligation.

3. I excuse the aloofness of my loved ones,
My opponent is time, and it has prolonged my feud.

4. The days still hurt their people,
And afflict the wise with tribulations.

5. But I did not expect that it would unsheathe,
And cut through my skin with its swords.
