38 (blessed am i that i)

BLESSED AM I that I am born to this land and that I had the luck

to love her.

What care I if queenly treasure is not in her store but precious

enough is for me the living wealth of her love.

The best gift of fragrance to my heart is from her own flowers

and I know not where else shines the moon that can flood my

being with such loveliness.

The first light revealed to my eyes was from her own sky and let

the same light kiss them before they are closed for ever.
