I wandered through the earth,
My heart was heavy with yearning,
My spirit scoured the angry seas to find a sorrow bearer,
The earth I tread shall cover soon my unfulfilled soul,
For death is the only peace,
That follows the torture of desire,
I wandered lone in search of God through the blindness of the earth,
If the earth has seductive lights, why hast thy no guide?
I walked all day to the sun but thy let thy curtain fall,
Oh let me die that I may see,
And rest my aching soul
