He died—if only I had been for him
He died; would that, for him,
He died, and would that I died for him
He has died, and would that I for him
a shield and a ransom.
I had been a shield and a ransom.
I would have been a ransom and sacrifice
Had been a shield and a ransom.

Blessed is he—what a good man,
Blessed is he, a good soul,
Blessed is he with goodness
Blessed is he—what a pure soul,

Who came as a guest to a generous one.
Who sacrificed himself for the noble one
Who has arrived as a guest upon a Noble Host.
