"As the days wander on, and summer turns to winter,
And hopes vanish, a light shines far away.
Though Fortune's wheel turns, oblivious to our struggles,
we skillful beings work hard, seeking the light of day."

Sreng fi imfnüd căwdul, teng se doach lieth șas srel,
Teng se imhălruat ngăfongits, se chnet răfang mi yem.
Yang fi loc Imdămath rinoat, șicleap yaf imbinmăcuath bang,
Bang imcroth yăsnar tăchemnüth, mi sngom se chnet fnüd.
or
Sre căwdul ef imfnüd, te lieth es doach șas srel,
Te ngăfongits es imhălruat, se chnet răfang mi yem.
Ya rinoat ef loc Imdămath, șicleap yaf imbinmăcuath bang,
Bang imcroth yăsnar tăchemnüth, mi sngom se chnet fnüd.

Fi spoath yăruf rie mot ămuch imheaș = My hovercraft is full of eels
