Oh, oh, Gazelles of Israel, struck down on your hills,the mighty warriors—fallen, fallen!Don’t announce it in the city of Gath,don’t post the news in the streets of Ashkelon.Don’t give those coarse Philistine girlsone more excuse for a drunken party!No more dew or rain for you, hills of Gilboa,and not a drop from springs and wells,For there the warriors’ shields were dragged through the mud,Saul’s shield left there to rot.
