Regret Beneath Sepulchers
Regret Beneath Sepulchers
The debt of heavy love I bore
To each tear on my corpse;
I reckon so well the salinity
Apart from these deep raindrops
Oh mom!..thou took me here to live
But that bit of love I failed to give
Beneath this grave, I beg in vain and pain…
Oh…Forgive me! Yes! Yet again
Thy heart is strong; why? My dad, it’s you!
Thy piece of salt stains my tomb…
Forever by boundless love thou give
I would return it in doubles if I could live
I can’t count how much I’ve counted on you
You’ve given me thy life, thy love, thy care
Oh…my mate thy tears; I can’t bear,
‘Cause thee shed it for me...who forever acted vain
The world now seems a wonderful place
Where every trouble solves in its own grace
Love I did give thee, but you gave back more
Oh! How I wish I could live once more?
