“My(A) days are swifter than a weaver’s shuttle,
And are spent without hope.
Oh, remember that (B)my life is a breath!

While your eyes are upon me, I shall no longer be.

“My days pass by faster than a weaver’s shuttle,[a]
    and my life will end without hope.

    You watch me for a while, but then I am gone.
