Crimson fields of little pain,
Ye rose of God, that ran in vain.
It suffers now in pit of flame,
It dreams high for one to blame.
To find a closer blame in time,
To discover too late thy lime.
In flaming pits, forgot, thy love,
To see never a cooing dove.
Twas now the wilted rose sees in pain,
The small rose of God, ran in vain.
Ye rose of God, that ran in vain.
It suffers now in pit of flame,
It dreams high for one to blame.
To find a closer blame in time,
To discover too late thy lime.
In flaming pits, forgot, thy love,
To see never a cooing dove.
Twas now the wilted rose sees in pain,
The small rose of God, ran in vain.
