1. My friend, I do not resent time
Except that I resent the people of my time

2. I do not count how many a brother I had
Who were unfaithful though sweet of tongue

3. I did not find him loyal, so I gave up
My share of him to Satan

4. I wish that my share of him and his like would be
That my eyes do not see him and he does not see me

5. I praise God, how people have been corrupted
And loyalty among brothers has diminished
