           Oh, death why come so late,
           I've waited years and years;
           I almost lost my faith;
           by longing for you here,
           you know this world do hates;
           only those kinds of me;
           for that I'll hold and wait
           upon your guide and lead;
           come take my hand, my mate;
           come, take me to your bed;
           show me what love you own;
           show me what folklores said;
           or show me what's unknown,
           come show what's never seen;
           for I might lose my home,
           'least I shall find new scene;
            but mate take me right where
            I shall be laid to rest;
            not just for now to bear
            this answer-thirsting test
            but lay me soft restored;
            unto where I shall sleep;
            or be alive once more;
            somewhere it's just for me,
            now stop I shall with words
            come leisure me my friend;
            let's be away from earth;
            for time has got to end.
