Transliteration Translation
B'had min yāwmin kad āwar weţ
Al bēţ’ anyā wahzeţ tammān mārtā w’maryam
Kad bākyān way.

Bākyān way gēr bekyā h'nīgā
Marīrāyīţ ak sīrēnās dawgāw yammē
W’nahrāwāţā.

Nahmān way gēr badmūţ yāwnā
Al parūgē wak hāw gawrā daśqil mennē
Bar saybuţē.
On a certain day, when I was passing
Through Bethany, I saw Martha and Mary weeping.

They were weeping bitterly
A mournful lamentation,
Like sirens in the seas and rivers.

For they were moaning like a dove over its young ones
And like that man from whom the son
Of his old age was taken away.
