| GODS | JUMALAT |
| | |
| The ivory gods, | Jumalat norsunluusta |
| And the ebony gods, | ja jumalat eebenpuusta |
| And the gods of diamond and jade, | ja jumalat timanteista ja jadesta |
| Sit silently on their temple shelves | istuvat ääneti temppelin hyllyillään, |
| While the people | kun samaan aikaan ihmiset |
| Are afraid. | ovat peloissaan, |
| Yet the ivory gods, | vaikka jumalat norsunluusta |
| And the ebony gods, | ja jumalat ebenpuusta |
| And the gods of diamond-jade, | ja jumalat timanteista ja jadesta |
| Are only silly puppet gods | ovat vain typeriä nukkejumalia, |
| That the people themselves | ihmisten kätten töitä |
| Have made. | ainoastaan. |
