My beloved by day I cry out
At night I'm in your presense
Please hear my words
Open your ears to my pleas
My soul is filled with destruction
My life hangs by the crevices of the grave
I'm in the book of those destined for dust
A being of helplessness
I'm left among the dead
Like inanimate corpses
Those whose long forgotten
Separated from all mercy
I'm in the lowest pit
The dark places of an endless abyss
Your rage weighs heavily on me
I'm overwhelmed by your crashing waves
My acquaintances have been driven from me
"I'm viewed as detestable
I'm trapped and I cannot escape
The affliction has caused my eyes to wear
I call out to you all day long
With arms stretched I'm yearning to touch your face
What good am I when I'm powerless
How can I say I love you when I'm gone
Can wonders be seen in darkness
And yet I still cry out to you
Every morning when I raise
Have you rejected me
Is your face hidden
Since I was born I've been filled with infirmity
I've always been ready to perish"
I'm numb from the terrible things that you allow me to suffer
Your burning anger overwhelms me
Your terror destroys me
Surrounds me like waters
They close in on me from all sides
You have driven my friends and companions far away from me
Darkness has become my companion
