1. Oh my God, their souls have been afflicted
By the malady of hypocrisy that has destroyed them

2. Renew their emancipation now with forgiveness
And erase their burdens, oh Lord

3. They have soothed their sorrow with tears
And unloaded their burdens before You

4. So aid the broken with healing from You
With a remedy that removes their afflictions

5. Crying out to You from a pained heart
That has revealed their deeds

6. Have mercy and be kind to them
Forgiving, pardoning their calamities

7. Sorrow is just retribution for evil with evil
With vengeance that increases their misdeeds

8. Where is the beauty that adorns them with grace
That removes the flaws that diminish their glory?

9. Once they were radiant temples
With light that illuminated their deeds

10. But the light faded and they became darkness
Intending the impossible so it entrapped them

11. If only they had learned from the prison
Of eternal torment that horrified them

12. And they had worshipped vice recklessly
Shaming their hopes

13. They were caught between victory and defeat
With the devil's loyalty swaying them

14. The enemy seized the reins of doomed souls
Permitting their capital to be plundered

15. They suffer in raging turmoil
And misfortunes that increase their confusion

16. With errors they committed in ignorance
And the hell of reprisals that destroyed them

17. The stillness of despair became their graves
Nay, a hell that claimed their lives

18. And they were enslaved by bodily lust
And passion that alters their forms

19. Look now, oh Hope for every weary soul
With difficulties that burden them

20. You came to banish misguidance until
The lost are guided and then neglected

21. With torment you accepted with whips
And humiliation that reduced their status

22. And a crowned head full of wounds
With myrrh that sweetened their words

23. And a crucifix exalted in humiliation
And doves that kill what is impossible

24. None but You can rescue from the abyss
Oh God who has entered their deepest darkness

25. To You is the glory, oh Lover of souls
Repentant, removing their shackles
