1. Not the people's enmity, but God's enmity,
I have taken him while the house had no protection.

2. I have taken him when beauty in him was perfect,
While his glowing cheek grew youthful down.

3. I have cut off from him the hopes of the greedy,
Of all who lusted for his brilliant beauty.

4. Oh friends! What danger the matter holds!
Destiny forestalled, by God, by God!

5. These shameless girls jostled against us, so they
Have taken all the beauty of the radiant face.
