O friend of the soul, merciful Father! | O friend of the soul, merciful Father! | ||
Please draw me, Your servant, towards Your will. | |||
Your servant runs like a deer | Your servant runs like a deer | ||
And falls before Your splendor. | And falls before Your splendor. | ||
More pleasant to him is Your companionship | More pleasant to him is Your companionship | ||
Than honey, nectar, or any taste. | Than honey, nectar, or any taste. | ||
O glorious and beautiful one, light of the world! | |||
My soul is sick for Your love. | |||
I pray you, God, please, heal my soul | |||
By showing her the pleasantness of Your light, | |||
Then she will strengthen and be restored, | |||
and she will have eternal joy. | |||
O faithful one, [we all] yearn greatly for Your mercy, | |||
Please show compassion to Your beloved one. | |||
For so much have I been longing for You, | |||
To look upon Your glorious power. | |||
That is what my heart desires; | |||
Please have mercy and do not neglect me. | |||
Please reveal Yourself and spread out over me | |||
Your canopy of peace. | |||
Illumine the earth with Your glory, | |||
And let us rejoice and be glad because of You. | |||
Make haste, and give us love, for the time has come, | |||
And be gracious to us as in the days of old. | |||
