עוֹרֵנוּ כְּתַנּוּר נִכְמָרוּ מִפְּנֵי זַלְעֲפוֹת רָעָֽב
Our skin is hot like an oven Because of the burning heat of famine.
נָשִׁים בְּצִיּוֹן עִנּוּ בְּתֻלֹת בְּעָרֵי יְהוּדָֽה
They have ravished the women in Zion, The maidens in the cities of Judah.
שָׂרִים בְּיָדָם נִתְלוּ פְּנֵי זְקֵנִים לֹא נֶהְדָּֽרוּ
Princes are hanged up by their hand; The faces of elders are not honoured.
בַּחוּרִים טְחוֹן נָשָׂאוּ וּנְעָרִים בָּעֵץ כָּשָֽׁלוּ
The young men have borne the mill, And the children have stumbled under the wood.
זְקֵנִים מִשַּׁעַר שָׁבָתוּ בַּחוּרִים מִנְּגִינָתָֽם
The elders have ceased from the gate, The young men from their music.
