    The poem is a call to join a protest in the marketplace while wearing shackles on one's feet like a prisoner. It describes walking through the city with swinging hands, dancing in a trance, kicking up dust, and with blood on sleeves. It mentions facing accusations from the rulers of the city, common people, and stones on the road. It asks who now remains a sincere friend in the beloved city and who is worthy of sheltering the hands of the murderer. It concludes by binding one's heartbeats, going broken-hearted, and deciding whether to be killed while accompanying friends.
