Arise! You who slumber
Awake from your dream
Stand out of you comfort
Walk to your confront
You early lonely lady
Oh! I awake to myself
To behold my comfort
And say I am as I will
To stay to my mind’s will
Oh! Yes I will
Day by day I live
Night after night I die
A lonely one I be
So lonely and so lowly
My life a lonely life
I pray that i do not as I will
I speak good will to myself
To live as well as should
And not to live a lonely life still
But a life so full
Now I am open to see
The visibility of my fear
Oh! I sit and dream
Of myself live in love
But I awake in lonely despair
Once upon a time they say
But these times never come
My fairy tale paradise I wish to stay
Only to find my paradise a fool’s court
A court now I pray be gone
Oh my heart bleeds to love
That I be out to know love
That I be out to show love
That I may now see through nature’s eyes
And know am no longer my lonely self
That which I must do, I do
Now I rise from my old slumber
Awaken from my dreams
To leave my comfort
Just to fight my confront and win I shall
Never to live that Lonely Lady Life.
