I cannot sleep. I am like a lonely bird on the roof.
You would not let me sleep. I tried to say something, but I was too upset.
Because of my sickness, my friends and neighbors will not visit me; my family will not come near me.
I am waiting for my Lord, like a guard waiting and waiting for the morning to come.
My God, I kept calling by day, and I was not silent at night. But you did not answer me.
making sad sounds like the wild dogs, like the ostriches in the desert.
