And now it is time for me and the sky,
To dabble in the mysteries of life,
Braving the lonely watches of night,
I, the pilgrim, seek Him, most High.
I cannot deny that at times I crave,
The company of my friends and pals,
And the warmth of her ageless grace,
My beloved, rare woman's loving face.
Yet, I cannot do anything to alter fate,
The destiny written clearly for me,
Even my loving lady is aware of this,
And I love her more for 'knowing' me.
