1. O you who blame me for what I have sought
To make my living and cure my fate

2. I truly cared for a difficult matter
Where can I find one who cares for my plight

3. The blame belongs to the heedless ones
The wealthy have excuses, and that is my excuse

4. I am a martyr of loyalty
Whether in a wasteland or palace

5. If the thoughts of the free man
Are concerned with worries, I lost my thoughts

6. Or if complaining of sorrow
Distracts the ignorant, I held my tongue

7. It is injustice that I suffer for my morals
Even if they immortalize my memory
