Si deus me relinquit,
Ego deum relinquo.
Solus oppressus nigram clavem habere potest.
Omnias ianuas praecludo
Sic omnias precationes obsigno.
Sed
Qui me defendet?
Ab me terribillissimo ipse.
[English]
If God has forsaken me,
Then I shall forsake God, too.
Only the oppressed may possess a black key,
I close all doors
Thus I seal away all prayers.
However
who protects me?
From the most frightful: myself
