Night prayer
Joseph Marx
Oh, if you could see me worship now
your sacred deep eyes,
who beseechingly question me
as if for love;
you would close your deep eyes,
so that I wouldn't drown
in your love.
Oh, if you could see me worship now
your innocent soul,
[that beseechingly questions me
as if for love;]
your innocent soul would remain silent
so that it wouldn't drown
In my love.
