New Oath

Saša Milivojev - NEW OATH (I swear) by the Sun and the light And the Moon in its wake And the Day that brought it in sight And concealed when it was by the Night I shall give you to nobody Devoted I shall be to thee I shall love you eternally To leave you, never will I Swear by the constelations and the Sky And God it was asembled by And Earth for even He made it to be And the Spirit that created He I shall give you everything For you I shall live Verses I'll write for thee Of love crazy And I swear by the stars That are hiding, wandering And from sight escaping And the Night when your whipe your tears away And the morn when you respire Kisses of mine shall Wake you tenderly Forever, even when we cease to be. Saša Milivojev Translated by Ljubica Yentl Tinska www.sasamilivojev.com
