1. Your radiant faces invited me to your kindness
So I imagined it to be wondrous

2. Yet you failed what I had fancied
And few were the praises for trying

3. How often have I turned a barren land into a garden
Only to find it overgrown and weedy

4. Your injustice does not make the swords pleasant
Except when their blades are sharpened

5. I had calculated but when the calculation was done
The count was cleared on the count board

6. Can you be excused like I excuse you
Since the roots of your sins run deep

7. I have weighed you against fairness
Excuse against excuse, no blame remains
