The Kešitess wept—they have wrought destruction (?) for the name of her house: ‘My helpers are shattered’;
The Dunnaitess wept, ‘Who has a resting-place, who has leave to go forth?
Whose is it to defeat (?) the enemy, (with) the exits cut off?’
The daughter of Niffer wept, for the raging (?) Qutû assembled,
She bowed down her face on account of the trouble of the husband of her well-being.
The Dûr-îlitess wept, for the Qutû collected,
For the son of her city destroyed, the overthrow of her father's house.
Weep for Erech, ravaging (and) shame has she received—
As for me, in the storm a place of refuge I know not.
Weep for Larancha (for the spoiling?) of (my) mantle I am in trouble.
