The Very Myself

While thinking of dying, I had a flash of life

The dark world of mine got a divine light.

I saw God holding something precious and high,

The friendship of you soon I was enriched by.

Friend, you are a drink, for I for you always pine

Like a drinker seems to be dying for a glass of wine.

Leave me not alone. O My friend, my soul, my life!

The very myself, for you leave me not to strive.

For all the faults and wrongs I have ever done

Who stands by my side, you are still the only one.

The world is not worth living without you, my friend;

Going by like a day, each moment I have spent.
