Let me not beg for the stilling of my mind
But have the will to control it..
And let me not weep at the slaying of my enemies
But be hard enough to see it fit..
Let me not be controlled by emotions
But control my thoughts at ease..
And let me not fail my people
But succeed in all their needs..

Let me not beg for your forgiveness
But feel no need to ask..
And let me not find myself in darkness
But shine in every task..
Let me not shed a tear in vain
But stay dry eyed through the pain..
And let me not walk through dessert courses
But flooded in the rain..

Let me not forget where i found my strength
But make me always stronger
And let me not fear the time to come
But stay a little longer..
Let me not need to wear a glove
But let me proudly wear my skin..
And let me not enslave myself in love
But the comfort of my kin..
