I Would Say

When I would lose the light on my way For me a lamp I know you would light Hold my hands, don’t leave, I would say. In engulfing darkness if I wander away You would not disappear from my sight When I would lose the light on my way. The edge of my worn out time may fray If from the falling sky ruins on me alight Hold my hands, don’t leave, I would say. Dark hours of despair thicken and stay I would think it’s my life’s ordained plight When I would lose the light on my way. I would plunge deep within me and pray If I don’t see the day break after the night Hold my hands, don’t leave, I would say. Ignite a fire to light me in your divine ray I would make my pole star shining bright When I would lose the light on my way Hold my hands, don’t leave, I would say.
