Oh my hope
When will thou be?
When will thou be?

Where art thou gone to?
Hope your sojourn is not far from near?
Because my patience is on the line

Wait a minute
How long should I wait?
For am waiting

Hour is turning into days
Days into another
Weeks into month

Months never cease turning into years
Years into decades
Decades into centuries

My hope
When will you actually be
For time wait for no one

Oh my hope
Do not tarry long
That I may not be worry

Come quickly around
I have waited enough
Come quickly around.
