You begot me in pain
fed me with milk of human kindness.
In your bosoms hugged me,
warmed me, my heart
my soul …………
Your sugary lullaby was
my first school lesson
Your love in deed so explicit,
manifest in your sacrifice.
Ye! the elixir of compassion,
unfathomed reservoir of virtues
Your blessings I seek,
for I'm a mortal so weak
part with me not.
Kindle my life's flame so hot…..
