It is weakness enough in me to remain thirsty,
It is enough incapacity for me to stand on the echo,
while the sea of generosity in Burdsir brims,
And the sea of dew in the pouring rain of Burdusir,

and to grope foolishly toward the ignoble man's fire,
And I act foolishly towards the fire of the wicked,
while the full moon of glory shines, its radiance manifest.
The full moon of glory, shining brightly, is visible from me.
