My soul, be strong, be courageous!” (Source: Kupsabiny Back Translation) - Newari: “They were carried along, washed away by the Kishon river.

O my heart, take courage and advance!” (Source: Newari Back Translation) - Hiligaynon: “They were swept-away by the Kishon which is the channel of water, the ancient channel of water.
I will-continue to fight with strength.” (Source: Hiligaynon Back Translation) - English: “The Kishon River swept them away—

I will tell myself to be brave and continue marching on.” (Source: Translation for Translators)
