On New Year's Day the Decree is inscribed
And on the Day of Atonement it is sealed
How many shall pass away and how many shall be born
Who shall live and who shall die
Who shall attain the measure of man's day
And who shall not attain it
Who shall perish by fire and who by water

Who by hunger and who by thirst

Who shall have rest and who shall go wandering
Who shall be tranquil and who shall be disturbed
Who shall be at ease and who shall be afflicted
Who shall become poor and who shall wax rich
Who shall be brought low and who shall be exalted

Avert the Severe Decree
there's 3 verses more to the prayer, and very beautiful ones, in the way of
exposition of the above rather than more to the list, but I won't stretch

Lyrics :
And who by fire, who by water,
who in the sunshine, who in the night time,
who by high ordeal, who by common trial,
who in your merry merry month of may,
who by very slow decay,
and who shall I say is calling?
And who in her lonely slip, who by barbiturate,
who in these realms of love, who by something blunt,
and who by avalanche, who by powder,
who for his greed, who for his hunger,
and who shall I say is calling?
And who by brave assent, who by accident,
who in solitude, who in this mirror,
who by his lady's command, who by his own hand,
who in mortal chains, who in power,
and who shall I say is calling?

Lyrics :
And who by fire, who by water,
who in the sunshine, who in the night time,
who by high ordeal, who by common trial,
who in your merry merry month of may,
who by very slow decay,
and who shall I say is calling?
And who in her lonely slip, who by barbiturate,
who in these realms of love, who by something blunt,
and who by avalanche, who by powder,
who for his greed, who for his hunger,
and who shall I say is calling?
And who by brave assent, who by accident,
who in solitude, who in this mirror,
who by his lady's command, who by his own hand,
who in mortal chains, who in power,
and who shall I say is calling?
