(719) Kabe ami baire elum
Long ago outside I've come,
Singing only Your song.
Forgotten have I the hour that was
And the color of Your fair strand of love.
With what inspiration and ambition
Was I looking forward?
Perhaps, at that time, the clouds were dark;
Or maybe the floodtide was harsh.
Perhaps at that time, that night or day,
None else was there to take my place.
Perhaps, looking at the thorns on my way,
Maybe I wept out of dismay.
Perhaps, holding danger in contempt,
I have marched ahead.

Ultimately, credit goes to the composer-and-conductor.
