My Beloved

The life I have been

Awarded – I sacrifice

To you -forever

 

The body I have

Been awarded – may it

Be the dust

At your threshold-

Always

 

Under your feet

Be my eyes and

Head –ever/Always

 

Forever sacrificed

To you - are my life

My heart my faith

 

O Cup bearer

Serve me a Cup

Its ecstasy erases everyone/all

But I am ever aware

Only of you/thee.

 

To the brink of

Death my yearning/longing

To see you/thee

Has brought me

I wish/pray that

You pass by my

Head/headstone?

 

The eyes of the

World are turned

Away from me

I do not care

As my eyes are

Ever turned

Towards thee/you

 

All I possess

In the world and all besides it

I sacrifice to thee/you

O, Beauteous King…
