Victory Prayer

shall I wake or lie down so that my enemies shall rejoice?
Shall I let them chants victory songs afar in their hiding places?
they mock me every hour whenever their toughs wiggle,
their mouths are a palace of deceit guided by hooligans,
if I wake up they mourn and peep on their shadow of darkness,
strengthen my legs that I walk and not stumble on their traps,
enlighten me that I see with eyes blazing fire like eagles,
let me see the beyond the horizon of the earth
and lead me to the precious path
where only the heart sees
and dwells.
Amen.
