English, asked by supritamurari, 3 months ago

I lay in sorrow, in deep distress;

My grief a proud man heard;
His looks were cold, he gave me gold, But not a kindly word.

My sorrow passed—I paid him back The gold he gave to me;

Then stood erect and spoke my thanks And blessed his charity I lay in want and grief and

pain;

A poor man passed my way,

He bound my head, he gave me bread He watched me night and day How shall I pay him back

again For all he did to me?

Oh, gold is great, but greater far is heavenly sympathy.
