    <strong>Translation</strong>
</p>

<p id="d118e2310">Listen! This sepulchre is a message
    <br>Within a web of warnings.
    <br>We sent this warning,
    <br>A baleful, urgent message.
    <br>We thought our people
    <br>Exceedingly powerful, a great generation.</p>

<p id="d118e2323">Here is no honourable deed commemorated,
    <br>Nor ancient treasure buried
    <br>Nor high seat of honor nor festival ground.
    <br>We feared and hated what is here.  </p>

<p id="d118e2333">This dire message warns
    <br>That deathly fire grows greater
    <br>Towards the middle; 
    <br>Right here is the center.   
    <br>We hid it in the darkness of the earth.
    <br>It has height and length.</p>

<p id="d118e2346">The deadly power still dwells here 
    <br>Now, just as in our time.
    <br>The danger threatens the body
    <br>And may kill
    <br>The malice glows, 
    <br>Broadening outwards.
    <br>If you dig and disturb
    <br>You will unbind great misery.</p>

<p id="d118e2364">Shun this tomb
    <br>And leave it uninhabited.</p>
