Alone in this World

I am alone in this world,
the loved ones have left…
I drink my glass
as if I were dead…
My sorrow here shows
As I had never lived…
My longing for all…
I am not fulfilled…

But it came to my soul
when I called for you,
now I got it all,
having God anew,
He talks to me,
and I talk to him,
In my soul he stays,
I feel God is him.

He gives life to my soul,
not to pass in death,
hard path waits ahead,
but the ray of light
shining on my path,
looking like no one else
your compassion Lord.

I know you gave everything,
I did not understand,
I kept rising in this world,
as if I had never known.
All that is belongs to you
and will be my way
a passing ever through,
To thee my Lord away.
English Translation by Zorin Diaconescu
