1. The time of my going to the graves has come
And I am decayed before death in my clothes

2. So upon you my dwelling peace, for I
Will shortly be gone, know this for why

3. You made me drink the cups of death with love
When will I see you show mercy for my youth

4. Glory to Him who, if He willed, made us equal
But was unjust to me, so you prolonged my torment
