If it is not my portion to meet thee ______ this life
then let me ever feel that I ______ missed thy sight
- let me not forget for ______ moment,
let me carry the pangs of this sorrow ______ my dreams
and in my wakeful hours.
As my ______ pass in the crowded market of this world
and ______ hands grow full with the daily profits,
let me ______ feel that I have gained nothing
- let me ______ forget for a moment,
let me carry the pangs ______ this sorrow in my dreams
and in my wakeful hours.
When I sit by the roadside, tired and panting,
______ I spread my bed low in the dust,
let ______ ever feel that the long journey is still before ______
- let me not forget a moment,
let me ______ the pangs of this sorrow in my dreams
and ______ my wakeful hours.
When my rooms have been decked ______ and the flutes sound
and the laughter there is loud,
let me ever feel that I have not invited ______ to my house
- let me not forget for ______ moment,
let me carry the pangs of this sorrow ______ my dreams
and in my wakeful hours.
