Where have I sinned, that this spirit of dread has befallen my head, and made my bones shake? I am robbed of peace, my eyes drip tears yet no one will come to my aid My foundation is bitter, my enemies all around I am locked in my room, awaiting the end For the evil that was done to me has left a lasting impression I cannot sleep at night, in the day I faint for those who have shown me no mercy are in a happy state They plunder and take my blessing for themselves My faith is a trophy upon their shelves Hypocrisy reigns in the land I am like a parentless child who rebelled against crime People saw me as an obstacle to their schemes They acted in wrath against me to further their dreams No one shows kindness to one whose in peril They tore me apart limb from limb until there was nothing left for me to tell Is this the inheritance of the one who longs for truth Who chose love and kindness from youth? Justice is on its knees praying for release When will it arise to avenge my cries? Vain! It's so vain how they move about What do they hope to achieve with endless vexation? They destroy the meek in their goings They steal and wreak havoc fully knowing that what they do pins people to the ground They destroy everyone who is not like them To make war against such is to be sound
