How Lonely Sits the City

1 ^aHow lonely sits the city
that was full of people!
How like ^ba widow has she become,
she who was great among the nations!
She who was ^ca princess among the provinces
has become ^da slave.
2 ^eShe weeps bitterly in the night,
with tears on her cheeks;
^famong all her lovers
she has ^gnone to comfort her;
^hall her friends have dealt treacherously with her;
they have become her enemies.
