What a priceless wealth heaven hath bestowed;
The form of a cherubic face
In this treacherous world - my host;
Triumphs over my agony with all grace.

I'm so lucky to be among a lucky few,
Well protected from being decayed and done,
As is the morning dew
Against the splendour of burning sun.

Never have I felt fatigued and famished,
Girdled around by your arms;
Manna have I relished,
Strongly fortressed from worldly harms.
