1. Who do I hope for and to what end do I wander
Without treading the blazing trails of the seven planets

2. O fate grant me, I complain to no one
Of what remains downtrodden, my strength sapped by tribulation

3. How much rage you make me swallow, boiling within
Limbs folded, I restrain over raging flames

4. You left me to the hands of misfortune, exposed
Regardless of my standing or lineage

5. My face shows you happy smiles as courtesy
While my chest harbors anger toward you

6. Is there anyone else in your family equal to me?
Or do they have a father like mine when consolation is needed?

7. When will its eras count a vintage that passed?
Yet you raise over it while boasting of me

8. Don't you know—and the best words are the truest—
That I do not yield to greed or whims

9. If ease lifts me I do not revel in delight
Or if hardship touches me I do not crouch in despair

10. A young man's worth is slaking his hunger
So all he acquires is the trappings of ruin
