Alright, Baba, forgive me, the dark days encircle,
Rahu and Ketu in the second house reside,
Saturn in the fourth, a heavy shackle.
Alright, Baba, forgive me, the dark days encircle.
Rahu and Ketu in the second house reside,
Saturn in the fourth, a heavy shackle.
Alright, Baba, forgive me.

Venus, Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, their hold is loose on thee,
Yet why do hopes, like vibrant lamps, brightly flee?
My darling, my sweet, what sugar, tell me, do you see?
Alright, Baba, forgive me, the dark days encircle,
Rahu and Ketu in the second house reside,
Saturn in the fourth, a heavy shackle.
Alright, Baba, forgive me.

Like a washerman’s dog, adrift and astray,
Belonging to neither home nor shore, in disarray,
None claims me, none.
I am the bedbug of the bedstead, a parasite,
Yet, by your form, you seem more mosquito in plight.
Mosquito? Alright, Baba, forgive me,
the dark days encircle,
Rahu and Ketu in the second house reside,
Saturn in the fourth, a heavy shackle.
Alright, Baba, forgive me.

In this heartless age, your ambitions won't take root,
Son, prepare yourself to depart, seek a distant pursuit.
Don't heed my plight, heed the truth, what a tangled knot you are, too!
Alright, Baba, forgive me, the dark days encircle,
Rahu and Ketu in the second house reside,
Saturn in the fourth, a heavy shackle.
Alright, Baba, forgive me.
