Don't Go

Don't Go 

(a wick to a flame)

Don't go my love

Shine through the nighttide

Helping a lost wayfarer

On way to his home, find path right.

Don't go my love

Stay strong this windy night

For minacious critters hound

Your light keeps us away from fright

Don't go my love

Burn for some more time

Let your light not flicker

Forever illumine the caliginous night.

Don't go my love

For I am nothing without you

A wick dipped in oil

Valued, only with your luminous hue.
