Analysis of O, Almighty Let Me Be Blessed
O, God let me have eyes
which will be blessed.
They only can see good deeds
when they will be opened.
Let me have ears,
can only hear soothing sounds.
Never heartbreaking
or thundering of clouds.
O, God bless me with tongue
which will never utter,
never will produce any word
that can hurt other.
Let me have mind
which will only incline
towards people's welfare
and will always enshine.
O, God bless me with heart
which will only crave for love,compassion
and for your proximity
and union.
