I do not ask for mercy , understanding ... peace
And in these heavy days I do not ask for release
I do not ask for the suffering to cease
I do not pray to God to let me die
To give an ear attentive cry
To pause His marching and hurry by
I do not ask for anything . I do not speek
I do not question . I do not seek
I used to in the day that I was weak
Now I am strong and lappef in sorrow
As in a coat of magic , mail and borrow
From time today and care not for tomorrow
