The crack of the whip
and rumble of the wheel,
galloping horse
and jolting chariot!(A)
Charging horseman,
flashing sword,
shining spear;
heaps of slain,
mounds of corpses,(B)
dead bodies without end(C)
they stumble over their dead.

The crack of the whip!
    The rumbling of the chariot wheel!
The galloping of the horse!
    The racing of the chariot!
Chariots charge!
    Swords flash!
        Spears glitter!
Many corpses are piled high![a]
    There is no end to the slain!
        They stumble over their dead!
