My heart’s desire comes to my lips as a prayer
God, make my life as one of a candle, a guiding light,
My presence would destroy the darkness of this world,
And my burning light would illuminate all space
My actions would be for my country, beautiful and admired
Just as a flower adds to the beauty of a garden
My life would be like that of a moth that loves light and flies into it, O Lord!
Such would be my love for Knowledge, O Lord!
I would work not but to help the poor
And to fill the lives of the lost and old with love
O God, save me from the evil and wrong
And keep me on the path that is straight and righteous.
