After we have felt enough of Hashem's wrath,

The road to redemption will be a straight path.

For 7 haftorahs we will be consoled,

With a strong arm, He'll lead us to our goal!

The destruction of the Temple was from the Divine,

There were no figs on trees, or grapes on vines.

When Israel's harsh fate was sealed,

Corpses fell like dung on fields.

Seek Hashem when he can be found and call on him when he is near,

In place of a thornbush, a cypress will appear.

The barren one shouldn't say he is a shriveled tree,

The dispersed of Israel will gather, as we'll see!

The reason for the Temple's destruction is described,

The leaders ignored orphans and took bribes,

In due time Hashem will take pity,

And Jerusalem will once again be called a righteous city.

The Jews pursued futility and became futile,

The destruction of the beis hamikdash was brutal.

In times of distress, ask the gods you made to save you,

If you pursue the truth, the temple will be rebuilt anew!

Yirmia did not know how to speak,

He foresaw that the Jewish future was bleak.

Yirmia was sent to speak the hard truth,

Hashem remembers us in the days of our youth!

The Jewish people are compared to dew,

Bilaam tried to curse us, but all he said was true.

We were told what is good, but we fell for scams,

Can we thank Hashem with one thousand rams?
