TRANSLATION

Before time began,

You were there

Generations come and go

But you are

And forever you will be

Your breath has given me life:

Your love has given meaning to my life

Life is sweet,

But your love is sweeter.

Though my literal eyes can't see you

But I can see you in the morning star

I can perceive you in the breath of life

I can feel you in your words of love

You are my love, My sweet heart

Everlasting God
