Ode To Marriage

Can I have this hand in marriage dear, Can you grace me with "I do", Let the angels sing to Heaven, Let my heart soar with their tune. Let us seal our love for we two, Let no others interfere, Let Evil, with his one good eye, Attempt to trick and snare. Let Age pass on his cares to us, For bound, we are as one, We'll ride the heady winds of joy, Until another song is sung. Until another song is sung, my love; We'll drink the drink of fools; Let passion be our compass, And a blinding trust our rule. Let us plant the seeds of new life, That through Time will resonate, Let our names be always dear to those, Who we'll set then on their fate.
