Be My Wife

I have seen you close I have seen you from afar

A smile that lights up all around as if you are a star

How I longed that you be mine to forever be by my side

Being the star you to me always to goodness guide

Would that I be able to always bring you joy

I will kill the bull and the fly if it you annoy

But somehow  I know if you want more than that

I fear my failings are exposed at a drop of a hat

How ever can I expect that you accept me, a lowly peasant

Never would I want that my beloved must me resent

And so I shy away and dream only of a blissful life

With full knowledge that you are the only to be my wife.
