Streched hand
Happy was I
In the pearl's heart of lie
Till lashed by life
Life a tossed wave I ran
Biggin the other side
The secret of the sea
I uttered thunderously
Like a spent cloud on the shore
I slept, and stirred no more
He set the world aflame
And laid me on the same
A hundred tongues of fire
Lapped round my pyre
And when the blazing tide
Engulfed me, and I sighed
Upon my mouth in haste
His hand He placed
Though every way I try
His whim to satisfy
His every answering word
Is a pointed sword
See how the blood drips
From His finger tips
Why does He find it good
To wash in my blood?
Remembering Thy lip
The ruby red I kiss
Having not that to sip
My lips press this
Not to Thy far sky
Reaches my stretched hand
Wherefore kneeling, I
Embrace the land
In the pearl's heart of lie
Till lashed by life
Life a tossed wave I ran
Biggin the other side
The secret of the sea
I uttered thunderously
Like a spent cloud on the shore
I slept, and stirred no more
He set the world aflame
And laid me on the same
A hundred tongues of fire
Lapped round my pyre
And when the blazing tide
Engulfed me, and I sighed
Upon my mouth in haste
His hand He placed
Though every way I try
His whim to satisfy
His every answering word
Is a pointed sword
See how the blood drips
From His finger tips
Why does He find it good
To wash in my blood?
Remembering Thy lip
The ruby red I kiss
Having not that to sip
My lips press this
Not to Thy far sky
Reaches my stretched hand
Wherefore kneeling, I
Embrace the land
