Tikun Chatsot in English Transliteration

_{Tkiun Chatsot was established so that every man should grieve and lament over the destruction of the Temple, over the burning and the desecration of the Torah, over the fact that the mysteries of the Torah have been given over to the external forces [i.e., clothed in garments that are not befitting their sanctity], and over the death of the righteous.}
