1. O death, visit me, for I do not delight in life
After my loved ones, now that their abodes are desolate

2. If only my loved ones, when their mounts departed
Had taken me along, and I had not borne their tribulations

3. Our loved ones, what is life to us without you?
For the word 'life' - you are its full meaning

4. We have lost the sweetness of life after you
If only the soul had left us too

5. You left, and we saw the earth desolate
As if we were in lands we had never trod

6. And found none after you as solace
Ah, for your departure - Ah!

7. Woe that the world is of no use
If only it had left us or we had left it

8. It narrowed on us while being vast
And was emptied after you though filled with people
