My heart is set ablaze by anxieties; it simmers as if on glowing embers
\nOh, treacherous fate, how quick it turns! My happy days suddenly changed to adversity
\nwas so far ahead of misfortune before, but now it tramples upon me with its shod hooves
\nused to wear a badge of distinction, and led the troops astride a noble steed
\nWhen enemy horsemen attacked, I was the first to meet them and cover the retreat of my kinsmen
\nBut today, I have no mount on which to carry my baggage
\nhow shameful! I have been humbled and subdued
\nhow painful is misfortune! Gone are the glorious days
\nhave often asked, where is my son, who spills the red blood of the enemy
\nhave often wondered, where is my beloved son
\nEnemy horses flee when they hear his thunderous voice; he terrifies the mares on the battlefield
\nHe chases them like an eagle; vultures dine on the flesh of his enemies
