Rh O lord, my sins are many, great are my transgressions, O my god, my sins are many, great are my transgressions, O my goddess, my sins are many, great are my transgressions, O god, known or unknown, my sins are many, great are my transgressions, O goddess, known or unknown, my sins are many, great are my transgressions. The sins I have committed I know not. The transgressions which I have committed I know not. The unclean that I have eaten I know not. The impure on which I have trodden I know not.

The lord in the anger of his heart has looked on me, The god in the fury of his heart has encompassed me. The goddess who has become angry with me and brought me into pain, A god, known or unknown, has oppressed me. A goddess, known or unknown, has brought sorrow upon me. I sought for help, but no one took me by the hand, I wept, but no one came to my side, I broke forth into lamentations, but no one hearkened unto me. Full of sorrow, I am overpowered and cannot look up. To my compassionate god I turn, proclaiming my sorrow. The feet of my goddess I kiss, and To the god, known or unknown, I proclaim my sorrow. To the goddess, known or unknown, I proclaim my sorrow. O lord, look upon me, accept my sighing! O goddess, look upon me, accept my sighing! O god, known or unknown, O goddess, known or unknown, How long, my god How long, my goddess
