Lightning flashed and thunder roared
mountains spewed fire forth
seas heaved and winds blew north
and the earth shook her womb with thrusting force–
gliding over lips of weepers
over vales and further deeper.
וברק הבזיק בזעם רעם
הרים זרמו אש כפעם
הים נפץ רוחו צפונה
–ונזלה הארץ רחמה דרומה
וכך גלשו דמעות של בכי
ממעל על לעומקי הדכי
