Se agapó, my dear one—I love you, my friend.
From alpha to omega, beginning to end.
Before the first planet had gone ’round the sun,
Til after the last day on earth here is done.
My love is more constant than tides of the seas,
And reaches much farther than sky’s strongest breeze.
I loved you before you were formed in the womb,
And I’ll love you still when you’re laid in the tomb.
