If ever love be given a name Tis you that befits its claim Like a fierce lioness that leaps at prey You plunge at those that dare say A word against your fragile kind So beautiful and bright of mind. You know the plight of women folk How they suffer the inevitable yoke, Bestowed upon them by the Almighty
They bow and kneel with all propriety So humble innocent and pliable in love Like a downy owl or beloved dove You symbol of faith, loyalty and sense Incarnation of decency and honor in essence With you we men value our worth You are the gem, the Loral of our earth.
