1. A beloved who does not do me justice
And a master who does not have mercy on me

2. I go to him yet he distances me
And I am just to him yet he wrongs me

3. And I have a hope that takes refuge in him
That gives me solace and makes me covet

4. He is stingy with his promise so when
I answer his call, he disappoints me

5. Will you not eulogize one who is depressed
A captive in the hands of grief
