I am enraptured at the mention of al-Karkh, so ardent is my longing.
I yearn for Karakh’s memory ingenuously
And nothing ails me but love for the one who dwelt in al-Karkh.
Only having a love for one who dwelled in Karakh

So I care nothing for death after losing him.
I care not for ruin after losing him
And for him, the slaughtered one is anguished by the pain of flaying.
Why would the slaughtered worry about being skinned
