In mirrors reflection I see,
the many impurities imparted within,
and the many a times I have failed thee.
Forgive me my Lady true,
of shortcomings I've bestowed,
and the many a times I was not there....
In mirrors reflection I see,
how many a nights alone,
and the many times I turned deaf ears,
Forgive me oh Lady true,
of seeming so weak,
and the many a times I gave cold shoulder..........
In mirrors reflection I see,
your stance behind my back,
and the many a times you stood at my side,
Forgive me dear Lady true
for tears that have fallen,
and the many a times I must wipe them dry.............................
