1. If you ask the people about us, we are
The adornment of highness and the earth with its hills

2. And we have no fault but that our generosity
Has harmed us, and affliction from all sides

3. So time destroyed our lives though we were not unjust
And clouds destroyed our wealth though we were not stingy

4. Our father, had he been
The one father of all people, would have enriched them with merits
