Don't delay, death

Don't delay, death;

come that I may live with you;

love me, for I love you;

for with your arrival I hope

to have no more war within myself.

Restoration of a happy life

is impossible,

because my grave wound

is so deep

that only you can heal it.

Come, then, that I may die;

seek me, that I may follow you;

love me, for I love you;

and with your arrival I hope

to have no more war within myself.
