Indeed, my Lord I will

How right I am to adore you,
because I love you so much.
How sweet are your words to my taste.
For this purpose I am dying in those our love vows.
I am joyfully looking forward to see you coming.
I cheered, I sing and testify for you.

Oh my love, how passionate is my affection for you.
I desire to be my Lords Bride,
I am dying and thirsting for you.
In vain have I been looking forward for your coming,
With all my effort, I often gazed in the clouds,
So far but my love did not come on earth.

I have moaned , pleaded, demanded,
I have searched the starry host,
When and where on earth shall we meet?
I want to kiss my lovers feet, if I am permitted.
Would you warm me up with the glow of your love?
My heart, o my love, is bleeding.

Flames consumes me, o my love, pacify me,
I bought sweet scented oils for my lovers hair.
My sweet heart, come and quench my passion.
Did I hear you coming? Is it really you?
Then I answered “Yes my Lord I am ready”
Then came PEACE inside of me.
