|
My king, hear my plea as |
|
I kneel before thee. |
|
In the last hour of my watch |
|
I have fallen asleep. |
|
When Darkness came |
|
I did not protect them. |
|
When they were struck with panic |
|
I did not admonish them. |
|
And when death came |
|
I was too late to save them. |
|
Do not hold me accountable for their deaths. |
|
Do bit forsake me in my darkest hour. |
|
For darkness comes for me, rebellion strides with me. |
|
And I feel death following me. ' |
|
Open your eyes and then you will see, that their deaths were merely an illusion. |
|
You must know of what |
|
I speak, and the wrongs you have done already have been forgiven although it saddens me to see you like this.' |
|
Although my |
|
King has shown me mercy how come |
|
I can't forgive myself? |
|
For the crime |
|
I have committed |
|
I should have been punished by death. |
