Your Wife

A man and a wife
they love themselves
like butter on the bread.

A man and a wife
they have their love
like sugar on tea.

They have a sweet love
full of  joy
when it's new.

A man and a wife
they should love themselves
in pain and joy.

Love your wife
a gift from God,
your rib, your joy.
