Says the baby, lifeless born:

My beloved mother dear,

Father, oh, my father dear!

When still resting in your womb,

Closely united with you,

I was Father's favorite.

Taken from my safe abode

placed upon the bamboo floor,

no one put me on your lap,

no one rocked me in a crib.

What became my crib at last,

was a hammock strongly built:

as a bed, a burial hill!

Discarded I was, unloved

Covering me was the cold earth

and the weeping sky above.

But although it will be like this,

a happier day will come.

Maybe it'll be coming soon!

And what will be happening then?

The old people weeping, sad,

in a darkening, mourning sky:

I will finally leave behind!
