WILL YOU MY DEAREST?

Will you, my dearest?

Will you be there O my dearest,

Will you be there when I need you most?

Will you be there when I am old,

Waiting, guest-like, for the host?



Will you be there when I am weak,

Unsteady and unstable on my feet,

Will you be there to offer your arm,

Will you be there when I am offbeat?



You coax and cajole me night and day,

Tender and loving in your own way,

Will all this continue when I am grey,

Will you be mine all the way?



Life is uncertain O dearest,

Too unpredictable is its sway,

So it matters when I ask you,

Will your fondness forever stay?
