My brothers, may neither I nor you spend
I never sleep, my brothers - never do I sleep
a night like the one I spent last night.
Just one night did I sleep - yesterday's night

Not a spot remained in my house
No spot remains in my dwelling
without a deep pool of flowing water in it.
Without a pool poured out and drying
