1. She was a maiden whom fate
Delivered to a sly and cunning wolf

2. Whose sole purpose is mischief and folly
With no regard for the burden of sin

3. Wolves of mankind are worse than the wolf
More resolute in their vicious attacks

4. Her beauty allured him, so he lusted
Like an erect spear, still fresh

5. He set his traps for her beauty
Professing his love while hiding evil

6. He spread his nets and swooped down on her
With the neck of his prey strained in vigilance

7. He passed by, feigning a smile
Dazzling, with wonder and pride

8. The maiden saw him gazing at her with love
And she became drunk from his glance

9. His amorous glance enchanted her
A glowing face promising joy

10. That mirage seduced her, and she went astray
In the deserts of his immorality, lost

11. In his love she saw her heart's desire
And she gave herself to him in secret

12. For one blissful moment with a wretched man
That brought her sorrow and grief everlasting

13. The vileness and treachery stripped her honor
How many players are led astray by betrayal

14. The days exchanged her joy for misery
And bliss for harm

15. Her chaste comrades shunned her
When she committed this shameful act

16. Her fresh branch withered
Once like a sweet, blooming basil

17. She who was lovelier than dawn
And purer than the virgin of the holy temple

18. Was defiled by the hand of a vile man
Who slaughtered beauty and virtues

19. Life and sweet hope were robbed from her
As she could not endure the humiliation

20. She spent her long nights in wakefulness
As stars passed, enduring embers

21. Bearing her obvious illness
And the shroud of dust, enduring embers

22. Whenever she revisited her past days
And a life of dignity and purity

23. And saw the present stained with disgrace
Virtue emptied and depleted

24. She wished death would take her soul
Or one of the means of her humiliation betray her

25. How to die by poison, fire
The river - which way is best?

26. The tongues of people burned her for her sin
Who in mankind would accept her excuse?

27. For he who hides his crime secretly
Begets shame and scandal openly

28. And when her family knew of the scandal, they were enraged
Her brother arose, seeking vengeance

29. He unsheathed a dagger shining in the night’s gloom
Filling hearts with terror

30. Resolute, he went to make his sister taste
In her slumber a reprehensible stab

31. She pleaded with him as despair loomed
And sorrow weighed upon the wretched girl

32. "My brother, do not deny me and tear my soul
For death and demise I am more deserving

33. It was I who defiled my honor
I did not preserve my virtue

34. His hand shook and the dagger fell
And he panted, stunned

35. Kindness awakened in his hardened heart
Tears of gratitude flowed from him

36. Madness seized him
And he raved as if drunk on wine

37. He fled, screaming into the night
Reckless and unaware

38. The wretched girl went to the monastery
Seeking with bewildered eyes

39. Bidding farewell to a world convulsed with misery
While luxury and comfort passed it by

40. Seeking safety and peace, she desired
For the remnants of grief a grave in the monastery
