The glow'g dart of your love so burn'g
Thrust through my heart with deadly need
Havin' known myself for so long a time
And knowin' s'one to strain
Have pity, in my thanks I'll never fail.
Now that all my cares and needs
Centre on your blissful grace
If all riches and splendour bestowed on me
In sorrow and pain
I'd be without you
My priceless jewel.
Unless i regain the mercy of your heart
Unless you reassure me of your love
If only for the sake of my fail'g breath
Or for the dear blood in my sapp'g veins
Help, save a soul- a sinking soul
My will is this: to make a vow
B'fore heavens and the hosts of them
That down your heart my sword'd stricken
But in words of oath and deeds of honour
And if by your grace my evil sinks away
Ready to change my way; I pledge my words.
AMMANI
