Oh where are you going? Eventually you must come back How many ignorant people have regretted this Before you and me
How many overpopulated countries and empty lands have you seen? How much time have you wasted? How much have you yet to lose? Oh emigrant in the country of others Do you even know what's going on? Destiny and time follow their course but you ignore it Why is your heart so sad? And why are you staying there miserable? Hardship will end and you no longer learn or build anything The days don't last, just as your youth and mine didn't Oh poor fellow who missed his chance just as I missed mine Oh traveler, I give you a piece of advice to follow right away See what is in your interest before you sell or buy Oh sleeper, your news reached me And what happened to you happened to me Thus, the heart returns to its creator, the Highest (God)
