1. O clan of rain, you have sworn allegiance to disgrace,
As the nights lead against us the attacking catastrophes.

2. So it made you yelp, and you fled to the hyenas
Who snap their jaws between the highlands and the lowlands.

3. How could you wear the necklaces while you are so weak,
Bearing litters that confound you, each and every one?

4. You bow your necks at a gathering
Where they circulate the wine cups in rivalry.

5. What has happened to you - whom God has scattered,
Casting into helplessness the broken ones among you?
