If you should go before me
please meet me at the gate
with my horse and my small animals
I know you won’t be late.

If I should go before you
then I will do the same
at last we’ll be together
in heavenly bodies’ name.

And oh to feel your touch on me
and oh what joyous bliss
for our longing lips to meet in love
and first celestial kiss.

Side by side we’ll fly the skies
and swoop and swirl in bonding song.
Past yearnings will melt ecstatically,
together an eternity long.
