Crosses
Crosses you have to carry
The day your body and soul marry
Share your love you may
Crosses you just can’t keep away
Fools never heaven’s path gained
Brethren of hate in hell remained
Temptation and sin a vicious circle this
Once in it life’s gone amiss
Crosses from four generations
Through life’s ten thousand and one stations
No respite from manna heavenly
In times like this you know you’re lonely
Your soul cries in Moorish unison
This pain in life without any reason
With a cry you’re born, amidst cries you go
This earthly life one day you’ll forego
Your crosses will your soul carry
To a new body it’ll marry
In endless lifecycles will it journey
Till the universal voice says “come to me”
