All Wrong Will Be Revenged

Old friends gather around me, feel my trembling... strength is diminishing, almost done with living; the most generous one was me, I gave all without receiving, and to revel in my kindness is vain, this breath is weakening! Somebody will hold it against me, " All he wants is glory! " He raises his hands in contempt while I'm dying of agony, " Have some compassion for me! " I murmur fighting back. " Christ, the Savior, promises life to all sinners who repent... despite their selfishness and the ignoble life of a wreck! Laugh silly one, your remark is far from benevolent!" Is life coming to an end? It's something against my wish! Fate, command darkness not to engulf me in extreme rush; there's no resentment for the vile deeds of the undeserved! Fate, allow me one last word, " All wrong will be revenged! " All thoughts have expired, now this soul flees from strife; let no regret be remembered in the realm of the afterlife, my punishment or salvation rests upon His endless mercy... He will teach me the laws of righteousness and humility!
