/ They pass, with heavy eyes and hair, / Before the Christ upon the Cross, / The Nations, stricken with their loss, / And lifting faces of despair.
/ What is the prayer they pray to Him, / Christ Jesus on the Iron Cross? / The Christ, neglected, dark with moss, / Whose hands are pierced, whose face is grim.
