Be as a father to your son,
A father,
whose right hand does divide the water.
Be as a Father and I as your son,
Who will never cease in his love,
Persevering for ages to spilling blood,
For the safety and success of his own,
That wheresoever I may go
I may be searched and known,
That sensing your holy presence,
And I within the palm of your almighty hand,
I may know you as the one
Who makes flee the troubles that I cannot withstand,
That one day you make undone
all evil in this world that faces your dear son.
With you beside, above, and in my body to this day,
I may fight and die a martyr, victorious in the Way.
And being a son of the almighty God above,
I may become a father to all,
Giving birth and making sons until I die and do fall.
And upon the ground, bleeding, I will once more call,
Lord, be as a father and I as yours, as your one and only son.
Տէր, Հայր իմ եղիր եւ ես քո որդի:
