Original text and translations

Latin text Dies mei transierunt, cogitationes meae dissipatae sunt, torquentes cor meum. Noctem verterunt in diem, et rursum post tenebras spero lucem.

English translation My days have passed away, my thoughts are dissipated, tormenting my heart. They have turned night into day, and after darkness I hope again for light.
