My dear, with you
A record moment of ecstasy
Dispelling the gloomy cloud
Of stress, anxiety and vexation
Brightens my day,
Darling, what a holy wind blew you
In my way?
Please with me forever stay
You are
The happiest thing that occurred
To me tiil today.
My princess
A warm morning sun
Flickering a ray of light
Making my fogy
Bachelor’s heart bright,
A curtain raiser
Thawing the ice of solitude
You afforded me
A turn around
That rendered my life sound.
What a surprise
You gave me children—
God’s gifts in a human guise!
