For as thou can see, my spirit cries
Yet thou drop rose by rose,
And here I am,
Unworthy but loved by thine heart!
Envelop me with thine pedals.
Shower me with a path of roses.
Kiss away my polluted stream.
Rake my thoughts to a pile of love.
Grant me thy bouquet for the Feast of the Lamb.
Friend, before thou leave to thy Eternal Eden,
Into thy breast, I commend my spirit.
Whisper thy lullaby,
So thy pilgrim may rest.
