Kzohh - Massebegravelser | Текст песни

The plight of the lower
And most of the middle classes
was even more pitiful to behold.
Most of them remained in their houses,
Either through poverty
Or in hopes of safety,
And fell sick by thousands.

...and fell sick by thousands...

Since they received no care and attention,
Almost all of them died.
Many ended their lives in the streets
Both at night and during the day;
And many others who died in their houses
Were only known to be dead
Because the neighbors smelled their decaying flesh.

Dead bodies filled every corner.
Most of them were treated
In the same manner by the survivors.
These are fortunate to have coffins.

Most victims were interred in mass graves
Concerned to get rid of their rotting bodies
Than moved by charity towards the dead.
With the aid of porters, if they could get them,
They carried the bodies out of the houses
And laid them swollen and festering at the door;

Where every morning quantities
Of the dead might be seen.

Such was the multitude of corpses
Brought to the churches every day
And almost every hour that there was not enough
Consecrated ground to give them burial,
Especially since they wanted to bury
Each person in the family grave,
According to the old custom.

Although the graveyards were full
They were forced to dig huge trenches,
Where they buried the bodies by hundreds.
Here they stowed them away
Like bales in the hold of a ship
And covered them with a little earth,
Until the whole trench was full
